Musk: Future Phones Won't Have Apps; AI Will Generate What You Want Recently, Musk predicted that in the next 5-6 years, mobile phones may undergo a transformation: traditional operating systems and apps will gradually disappear, and phones will become dedicated AI terminals. At that time, users will no longer need to download apps or open software; instead, they can directly tell AI what they want, and the AI on the phone will collaborate with cloud-based AI to generate videos, images, and various interactive content in real time.
