“There are some secret form factors that I cannot tell you about,” the Qualcomm CEO said in an interview with Fortune Editor in Chief Alyson Shontell on the Titans and Disruptors of Industry podcast. “But I think we’re working with pretty much all of them.”

“Pretty much all of them,” in this case, means the AI companies racing to build the device that replaces the smartphone. OpenAI, Meta, and others that Amon declined to name in an interview from the company’s San Diego headquarters. This device won’t be something you can hold; it’ll be “things you wear”: glasses, jewelry, pins, pendants. And it’ll center on the idea that the center of digital life will no longer be a phone but an autonomous agent.

"Amon’s pitch is that the smartphone-centric world Qualcomm helped build is coming to an end. In its place, he describes what he calls the “ecosystem of you”: glasses with cameras pointed at whatever you’re pointing at, earbuds that hear perfectly what you hear, and an agent that ties them together and operates across all of them."

“'If AI understands what we say, what we hear, what we see—glasses are very close to your eyes, your ears, your mouth,' he said. 'All of this information is going to be very important context for agents to do things for you.'"

All of this will be very important for the total surveillance state so we can monitor everything single thing and make thought crime actually happen.

What's that movie about the giant AI thought crime matrix? Rather difficult to find since there are so fucking many
