Exactly. Ask customers "do you want AI in your phone?" and their response will probably be "meh", as shown in the article. But ask "do you want notification summaries, a better camera in low light, Siri to be able to look up more things, searchable photos, etc?" - and they absolutely will.

Lol no one i know wants any of the things you mentioned.

Normies hate the AI hypetrain bullshit.

Okay let’s be fair, people do want better low-light photos. And text recognition in photos. And translation.

Or maybe they don’t, but I somehow see people using those features all the time.

I’m really curious to see if this VC wet dream will materialise or if reality will prevail. Currently I’m pretty sure that the only people who are still enthusiastic about the AI bullshit are the ones with some form of vested interest, so they’re trying to fabricate the demand.

Actually I like all those, but I don't care whether they are with AI or not. So slapping AI on them is a definite "meh" for me, show me results not trendy labels.
