I was thinking about dynamic lock screens and Al in phones. They feel something really new specially dynamic lock screen and useful but do you think they are the best tech trends this year or is there something else exciting

Hm, what do you like about Dynamic lock screens? Wouldn't they consume more energy and add to optical overstimulation? To be honest, it's a feature that I could live without.

AI is something else, I see that as a real trend. Though there is a lot of noise right now. Simple algorithms often just claim to be AI.

Personally, I think that AI is useful when editing and managing your photos. The phone might be able to predict how you like your photos cropped, how to remove unwanted elements or which photos contain your favorite people etc.

Also, AI might predict what you want to do next on your phone and suggest the proper apps or information.

I heard of someone talking to ChatGPT on a longer car ride. He said it was a surprisingly pleasant experience. 😊

I kinda get what you’re saying. dynamic lock screens do look cool and all but yeah maybe they use more battery which is kinda annoying. But I still think they’re fun like if they show useful stuff like weather or reminders you know?

About AI I agree its way more exciting. The thing with photos sounds awesome like when it edits or crops for you makes life easier. But also, I don’t know, sometimes AI feels more like a buzzword than real magic stuff right Like not everything called AI is actually that smart lol. Talking to ChatGPT on a long car ride sounds cool though I might try that someday just to see how it feels
