    Yes. Android already does all these things. But I think the things I’m excited most about are not on this list at all.

    1. A private local LLM. With the on-device context of my notes, messages, calendar, etc, I’m rather excited to have a more personal LLM than ChatGPT.

    2. Personal messaging via satellite. I love that I can stay in touch with people outside of a cell network.

      Did I understand correctly that this is only going to be in the iPhone 15 pro? Because that’s a lot more expensive than a pixel, more than I’d ever spend on a phone tbh.

      I’d add to that list. If Siri is 3/4 as capable as shown in the presentation, that’s sick. Android does not have that.

      No need to wait for iOS 18 to have that: https://llmfarm.site/

        That’s great, but the fact it’s local and private means it can consume my personal data and be a more personal LLM. This just doesn’t hit that mark.

          Yeah I guess it doesn’t allow access to those things yet although I don’t see why they couldn’t add that in a future release. The APIs for that already exist.
