That and there would be a kind of service by Apple itself that builds apps for you on the fly.

I don't think we are anywhere near it yet but perhaps in the future the App Store is a single app that conjures up whatever you ask of it. It could be called "The Last One".

This is where I believe Apple is making a mistake by not going all in on AI.

People think it's some kind of genius move or very Apple-like move to not join the AI race.

But who is actually going to build apps on the fly better, faster for you? Siri or Opus 9? Siri or GPT 10 Astra?

When many tasks are done better on a single AI app, the iPhone moat will be greatly diminished which will open up competitors to iOS and Android.

Are there any real examples of apps built on the fly better and faster?

		Many requests on ChatGPT used to be able handled by some app before. I paste a screenshot and ChatGPT automatically knows to extract the text for me. Needed an expensive/inconsistent app before.

		Technically, any case where LLM casually writes and runs a nontrivial piece of code to fulfill your random request would qualify.
