Who went to prison for illegally spying on innocent citizens and foreign countries? That’s right...no one. They can do whatever they want since Americans have become sheep quite some time ago and don’t stand for anything and keep voting the same corrupt status quo into office.

Exactly. I don't even use computers anymore, just my phone so I'm screwed lol

AR glasses? Please, no, those are a privacy nightmare. I won't know what info you are gathering or automatically shown about me when looking at me. Big companies having my info is one, having it at the fingertips or should I say eyelashes of everyone in the world? Shudder. Sure, there could be rules around it, but who tells me you are complying to them so no, please God, no, no. Ok, rant over.
My phone. Batteries that last days. Better cameras, but the laws of nature are in the way for the most part there. Easier integration with other equipment like your laptop, TV, or camera gear. Longer support. Modular options to select exactly the phone you want, just like laptops and PCs. OS freedom if you want to. One time purchase for all apps, so you don't have to buy them again when switching Android to Apple. Better yet: a shared app store for all platforms. But most of all: better battery life.

New battery tech that lasts longer and doesn't have all the negatives of lithium ion. An actual qwerty keyboard like the old droid or sidekicks

I would love a thin foldable or pull out phone that became the size of a tablet and could replace a PC. Not asking for lot right? It should have a small keyboard, pen, and mouse that are stored within it.

Don’t know about NSA, but I do know that Microsoft/CharltGPT has been soliciting NASA for research purposes. They did a presentation the other day to my husband’s department. I think they are looking ways to improve chatGPT’s science and code handling skills. They said they wanted to see how NASA uses AI.
My husband already uses ChatGPT for coding menial tasks, like unit tests, and minor scripts. NASA works with very proprietary hardware, because it has to survive being in space, so Microsoft might be curious what kind of hardware questions they ask to help other hardware companies.
Microsoft might also be soliciting NASA just to say, “we are so awesome that even NASA uses us!”
I’m any case, I wouldn’t be surprised if they haven’t already reached out to NSA. Much of NSA’s internal data is probably classified/restricted, so they won’t share that stuff with ChatGPT, but all the miscellaneous web data gathering could probably be handled by chatGPT.

Destabilising national and international governments. Enabling larger scale profiteering of big corporations they’re in bed with. It’ll basically allow them to do what they’ve always done just a lot faster and more accurately. Yay!

Well in America you’re right but they’re probably doing similar things in Russia and China

This tech has been around for a decade in different forms (Natural Language Processing, OpenAI). Count on the fact that NSA, CIA and other intelligence agencies around the world have been using it for a loooong time.

My s20 ultra is amazing. Yes, it's a few years old, but it's still mint from being in a case. I see zero reason to upgrade it anytime soon. The only improvement I would like is a major reduction. In price. They are too expensive.

Unbreakable glass. Batteries that last days. Waterproof.
And settings that allow you to turn ON what you want, rather than dig around forever to turn something OFF, then find that carrier app that you can't delete. I didn't die when I cut off a mattress tag, I can deal with an issue with my phone if I delete VZW notes or whatever.

Connecting to a large screen is a pain. Or even glasses. Apples headset should just be a hand free interface for the phone. They dropped the ball big time

A neural implant that allows Apple, Instagram, and Amazon to transmit advertisements to my brain while I sleep and work so that I never have any break from things trying to provoke me and telling me that I should feel dissatisfied.

I doubt the old 10 years behind the government adage holds up with this stuff but I do believe they have something slightly more advanced that has existed for maybe a year or 2 ahead of what we can use

Actually I haven’t yet had a need to, since my progression has been iPhone5 > iPhoneSE1 > iPhone12 Mini. If I do ever get saddled with a massive platter of a phone, I guess it’ll be my best bet…

Rollable phones. Don't know how foldable phones are seemingly winning that battle right now, because they seem to be ugly and impractical with a noticeable crease that makes an expensive phone seem like a cheap one.
The other big thing will be AI edge capability. There's a huge gap in performance between what phones need now for contemporary applications, and what they will need to run AI applications on the edge device. I really think this will be the driver in the need to keep upgrading to the latest phones, as even my middle tier device does everything I need.

Looked it up. Yeah seems pretty awful.

Would like more seamless integration between devices. If I'm browsing something on my phone and want to switch to my pc monitor I should be able to swipe or some very easy action to get it there.
Chrome's is almost perfect but could be better and is limited to browser windows

Have you tried enabling one-handed keyboard? It does just that bias to whichever side you choose.
