Next iPhone Will Obliterate Pocket Screentime, Brace Yourselves
Marc Andreessen confidently predicts that someday soon—maybe in three years, maybe in twenty—your beloved smartphone will seem 'primitive.'

Meta’s smart glasses are currently the wearable wannabes, though Mark Zuckerberg admits, 'It's not like we’re going to throw away our phones.' So while you cling to your pocket computers, venture capital bets you'll eventually be whispering sweet nothings to eye-operated or environmental-computing gadgets instead.

Tech bros say phones will become 'primitive'; meanwhile, I’m still struggling to get my toaster and microwave to talk to each other. Evolution? More like chaos in silicon.
