| here are some iphone apps i use often: - Spotify - Le Monde (french news) - Maps - Find My - Amazon Anyone have a take on how these (maybe not precisely) could be "replaced by an AI agent"? |

| I think shopping can be done via chat. For the rest, they can still exist as apps inside this OpenAI smart phone but the OS layer will "see" everything and be able to ingest everything you do into a context. Next time you want to do something or ask for something, the AI knows a lot more about you. Being just another app on iOS, it's impossible for OpenAI to do the above. |

Maybe this idea of apps being "replaced by agents" is less literal than I'm thinking. Like with music, maybe it could be an agent that in general helps me be a cooler, more informed music listener by constantly thinking about new ways of accessing myriad sources of info about what's cool, or what I would think would be cool. | | |

There is no doubt in my mind that Apple and Google are going this way. They may have a huge advantage over OpenAI. But OpenAI can't breakthrough without making their own phone so they have to try. | |
