@arstechnica who wants ai to make a phone call, send a message, take a photo, check the weather, doomscroll? No thanks!
@arstechnica yuck, I am never getting an android device again
@arstechnica We absolutely need a 3rd player in the mobile OS stalemate. Pity that Linux is.....at least 10 years away from being a credible alternative. And that carriers are platform gating their network.
@arstechnica Ok, so not a single useful feature in that whole list.
@arstechnica this is why my next phone will run Linux and not Android.
