Marc Andreessen confidently predicts that someday soonâmaybe in three years, maybe in twentyâyour beloved smartphone will seem 'primitive.' Companies from OpenAI's Sam Altman teaming up with Jony Ive to startups like Rabbit are cooking up screenless devices that supposedly make current smartphones look like rotary phones. Metaâs smart glasses are currently the wearable wannabes, though Mark Zuckerberg admits, 'It's not like weâre 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.
