A new CNET survey finds that only 11% of US smartphone owners upgrade their phone because of AI features. But companies continue to push AI capabilities in their keynotes. Here’s what our survey showed people cared about most when upgrading their phones. #tech #smartphones #apple #samsung #google Subscribe to CNET on YouTube: Never miss a…

    Honestly, this just proves that if all companies are pushing AI and no other features, many will either just not buy, or buy based on features they can actually use that may not be Vaporware (not just an Apple dig there since most AI don’t translate into daily real word use. Assistant use is different and even then, I know many who have gotten tired of the lack of purpose even in assistants. I know someone who went heavy into assistant ecosystem with smart home speakers, lights etc, because of Mobility issues and they are getting so tired of the “helper” requiring extra work since it doesn’t want to even understand basic commands like “Turn on Bedroom Light” and instead it wants to start playing random music. (Insert random song that might have any or some of those referenced words in the title).

    Weird thing to have a woman on a show hiding her hair to men in 2025 with her Hijab
    Not very Gender Equal and not At all Western nor American Values

      Apple refuses to go sunk cost fallacy on AI and that makes them dumb? Try using both brain cells.

    Yep AI, AIN’T INTERESTED! 😂 But for real, Apple needs to forgot AI and work on making Siri better. 🤦🏾‍♂️

    I love having AI on my phone. I have Gemini, Copilot, and ChatGPT. I mainly use Gemini for suggestions and walkthroughs. Just the other day Gemini helped me figure out my mesh system’s bottle neck.

    Looks like Pee-Wee Herman in that checkpoint scene in his Big Adventure movie. “Take a picture it’ll last longer!!!!!!”

    Mobile AI is a bust.

    The only people hyped about AI besides the bag holders are boomers that had their mind blown by a chatbot regurgitating therapy speak and don’t want to die without thinking there’s a technology out there that will save us from ourselves.

    All these comments are manufactured. Can you see they’re filled with Emojis? Nobody really does that in a YouTube comment section. Also noticed there’s no reply to any of the comments? YouTube comments sections always have a back and forth. Not these folk cuz it’s all bots

    Look at how fake this comment section is???

    Watchout, wearing that durka scarf the phone may misidentify you and blow up.

    Siri 2013 finds the answer , and reads it out to you ,
    Siri 2025 finds a webpage for you to look up yourself, 99% of the time does not give you the answers you were looking for .

    AI IS THE NEW ENEMY.

    That is the main reason to not base by judgement on A.I they will hook you up and then charge money for it then comes the impact on you as an individual as well which is not good in the long run.

    I only go for something Chatgpt for brainstorming and that’s about it. Rest all is me
