Because Steve Jobs died
frick that arab wienersucker and his cult presentations
because smartphones were such an absurdly good idea that every new piece of tech since then has been trying to do something smartphones already do better. up to and including vr headsets. it's like trains but for electronics.
Steve Jobs would have improved the iPhone
Waiting on good AR to replace phones
It'll depend on a connection through your phone
Good ones won’t.
They’ll be new devices to supplant phones.
Simpler
Entirely server based with the hardware (and user) just being a client.
It’s why 5G and friends are being rushed.
Look forward to wireless power making a stealth and hidden comeback too.
They simply will because it will be more profitable to make you buy 2 devices.
You don’t need a phone to chip away at someone’s wallet anon. Besides it’s still too costly.
As a mega corp, you want something with no tedious manufacturing , production or expenses. While still hacking the bio ape’s brain to make it want the premium thing everyone else does, AND be able to charge for it too.
You’d be taking away interest from the higher resolution display subscriptions , that also are “AI Charged” for real-time services.
You wouldn’t want to be that “person” with standard AR right?
5G (milimeter wave) is the same shit as 5Ghz wifi that people have had for a long time now and 6Ghz is getting rolled out to consumers right now.
The "normal" 5G uses the same bands as 4G/LTE it's just an incremental improvement of it.
The only places that'll probably ever get 5G milimeter wave are large public venues (arenas and such) and downtown areas of cities, because it's range is a joke compared to regular cell bands.
It would make zero sense to connect VR headsets over 5G unless they're expected to be used out in public, in which case you wouldn't be expecting to have 5G milimeter wave, because most places will never have it.
Phones in your hands will die as a concept when functional and approachable AR is available, and the market is ready for it. We're already pretty much there as far as the actual tech goes, if only just a little bit off. The computational capabilities of a modern smartphone are without a doubt already able to be integrated into a device that fits in or on the ear. The only thing saving phones (in their current form factor) from doom is the screen. The only actual hurdle to this future is ironing out the AR lenses and connecting them to a headset. My wager is that the primary device will be something like a wireless earphone that will wirelessly connect to and power a single or set of contact lenses to provide AR. That specific technology of AR contact lenses has already been shown to be a viable concept by a research team last year and it will prove to be trivial to make them wirelessly connect to a headset. As computational efficiency increases, the capabilities will only grow and the size will only shrink, eventually turning into something of an incredibly capable neural implant, probably with connections to the optic nerve to supplant the need for the lenses. The functionality of a phone will be integrated into this setup as soon as they're able to wirelessly connect some AR lenses to a headset. My second wager is that apple will be the ones to convince them masses on it; they're pretty good at making normies like geeky shit and they'll just integrate iphone as a concept into the headsets.
it has you are totally ret arded
2004-2014 covers smartphones, the spread of broadband, WiFi and 3G, the 4G transition, multicore CPUs, modern GPUs, HD video and monitors, AWS, and practically all software anyone uses today... oh right, and IQfy.
Please name even one change since 2014 which deserves to live on the same list as these.
you are a fricking moron i'm not going to waste time answering that because you clearly have no interest in objective evaluation of progress
induction charging was in its infancy in 2014, now it's... ubiquitous? (I don't have any capable device)
who knows but its probably because of brown people
2024 to 2034 is going to put 2004 to 2014 and 1994 to 2004 in shame.
Sure, but no new technology will be needed to start the mass human die-offs.
Agreed
dis
Because the world peaked around 2012-2016.
>5G circlejerk is over
>Blockchain circlejerk is over
>AI circlejerk is already being uncovered for being just that
I am kind of glad that we reached the plateau. We can finally work on making already existing, useful things more robust.
lmao, this. Unfortunately I think AI still has some time before the boomer tech CEOs realize what it actually is (considering they're forcing it in Windows on an OS level)
x86 reached its theoretical limits of improvement but it's still the best architecture around for general purpose computing because ARM devices always have a locked bootloader and nobody has considered the amount of money they could earn if they just made an ARM computer with an unlocked bootloader (give it another 20 years maybe they'll realize it by then)
We've hit a plateau that won't change until we figure out a new absolute game changing breakthrough in technology like entirely new battery tech, so all we can really do at this point is incremental optimization
companies don't take risks anymore, the ones that do get bought and killed
My phone is faster than the fastest desktop computer in 2014 at a 100th the size and zillion less BTUs. Not that innovative, sure, but I would never have guessed phones would be as powerful as they are today.
what drugs you doin, son?
