too many people are working on this, i doubt openai will split their focus to compete on hardware this year

If shipped, would this resolve the market?

@Amaryllis i skimmed over the article and i think no this would not suffice for three reasons

1) google’s default assistant will have access to priveleged apis and features

2) the devices won’t have chatgpt installed by default and users would first need to download the app

3) i feel this like making the argument that iPhones are released in partnerships with Google since they have google search as default engine 😅

Unfortunately, the ChatGPT app still wouldn’t be able to create custom hotwords or respond to existing ones, since that functionality requires access to privileged APIs only available to trusted, preinstalled apps. Still, given that Google will launch Assistant with Bard any day now, it makes sense that OpenAI wants to make it easier for Android users to access ChatGPT so that users don’t flock to Bard just because it’s easier to use.

Must the NN be executed locally on the device?

@Amaryllis no, it just has to be powered by AI - for example meta glasses would qualify since AI is a critical part of the UX

@Soli thanks for clarification.

Does a smart phone running a chatGPT client qualify? I'm guessing not?

I am confused as to what "critical part of UX" means.

@Amaryllis example of devices that would qualify are smart speakers (alexa), smart glasses (meta glasses), ai pins (humane), etc.
