    'The AI Phone will boot a custom Magenta AI operating system which replaces the traditional app-based user interface with Perplexity Assistant'

    Is the custom ROM based on android or is it a brand new operating system that they created from scratch like what Huawei did with their next OS ?

      The AI avatar in the second screenshot looks like one of those hideous “beautification” filters

        I swear microsoft is a complete idiot for ditching the Cortana name. Like, hello??? It's 2025 and we have intelligent AI now. Cortana makes much more sense today than it did 10 years ago.

          Cool concept, but likely a flop.

          I'll be honest I'm lowkey waiting for that day some company creates an AI device and OS combo like the one in the movie Her

Especially in this growing Anti-American climate lately, it is not a bad idea for European tech companies to look for something more sensible.

                    Would of curse be nice to get 3rd OS in the mobile market that is not ios or android but that is just like a motherboard in the hardware and the more important part is how everything work on the OS and how the support is.

                    Start to advertise year before the release and then fail to deliver as typical. They should have the OS done and then start to use the market as the beta testers like all games and so on do

                      Perplexity is the second worst name after Confusion to have for an assistant (any service for that matter).

                                It's just going to use Android, not a custom operating system.

They need to get the mindshare out there or no one will be buying one once it hits the stores. For instance, they'll probably need to get traditional app makers onboard, to generate content.
