    They all think it’s great until the Ai takes over your phone . If you thought drunk calling and but dialing was bad just wait until your Ai starts doing it on your behalf .

    Awesome hardware on the processor and phone sides but what about software support? Motorola and Xiaomi barely have any support for older devices. Maybe they just want to keep pushing new junk on to the consumer. The situation is much better on the Windows laptop side with Snapdragon X, maybe because Microsoft forces Qualcomm to keep supporting platforms for a few years.

    Isn’t xiaomi already made their own chip? why invite them?

    Things don’t look good for you, Qualcomm. Geekerwan’s video shows that the A20 Pro beats it at basically every aspect lmao.

    These AI presentations are not for the average consumer. They are literally operators within the AI arena talking to other AI operators within the arena. And that is the problem. The average consumer still has no clue how AI fits into their everyday life. I am an avid tech enthusiast and am still hard-pressed to force AI into my routine. Until the leap is made where stay-at-home moms are sharing AI tips, the bubble will continue to grow. And all bubbles eventually burst.
