If it doesn't have a touch screen, it probably relies on voice control. Either a watch or glasses.

What other option is there that doesn't require an implant or something?

I expected something like this in cars before now. Lots of cars have an awkward and very limited version of audio controls. This could be expanded into something truly useful.

Toyota: Wipers and Lights On.

Toyota: Navigate to home

Toyota: Volume up

Instead, we get "full self driving" that requires constant supervision --- which is pretty much useless because it takes just as much effort as driving if you follow instructions or puts your life at risk if you don't.



Thanks. I think per the recent interview with Ive and Altman they ruled out glasses, so I guess a watch!


Personally, I lean more towards hype than product --- over promise and under deliver; as per usual with most things AI.

A truly spectacular, new, must-have alternative to a phone would have to read your thoughts or something.
