    Google rolled out a retooled search engine that periodically puts AI-generated summaries over website links at the top of the results page; while also showing off a still-in-development AI assistant Astra that will be able to “see” and converse about things shown through a smartphone’s camera lens

    What worries me the most is that this AI hype is coming strongly to the smartphone market too, and we don’t have something solid like Linux distributions to change to and be free

      I think demand will come soon for either manufacturers to open their boot loaders or new manufacturers cropping up to fill that gap.

      I’m running graphene os on a pixel 8 pro and haven’t looked back.

        what we really need on phones and by extension arm devices is a unified bootloader, something akin to a bios or uefi (which btw already exists on arm but manufacturers are choosing to not go with it for some reason)
