alright so we know what we've got now we've got the new pixel phones we've got google home Google daydream and of course the Google assistant but I think potentially there's a lot more okay so before we dive deep let's just talk about those new pixel phones what do we got and what do we not while the pixel and the pixel XLR google phones through and through they're actually manufactured by HTC say which one about the one a nine HTC's iphone clone but the taiwanese company really does know how to make some solid smartphones both the pixel and pixel XL sport and aluminum and glass construction you'll notice the back panel is made of mostly aluminium save for the small glass section on the top of the device that surrounds the camera sensor and the fingerprint reader both the pixel and pixel XL come in three different colors very silver quite black and really blue we're not making that up so you can see the specs right here I won't go into too much detail about that but you know it's the Snapdragon 820 1 4 gigabytes of RAM that's fantastic a decent battery life improvement and a much much vaunted camera but what does it actually mean for you and me now I know what you're thinking cuz I'm thinking it too good phones decent even decent specs but where's the fundamental earth-shattering change that hiroshi la Kaymer was talking about we were expecting something big we were excited and at first glance not too much nice but not great not bad but I was hoping for more well I'm happy to tell you that I think there is something more and it has everything to do with AI and even then it's not so much a I exactly as much what AI can potentially do for us I've said many times before that you and I enjoyed the world wide web through these tiny little screens this is why everyone is hunched over and locked into their phone and blocking out the people in their environment around them the potential the hope the dream that AI can contribute to is that it frees us from being locked into that screen if you can make voice commands that are contextual and smooth you can look at your screen less that's fantastic and the real potential here this is the Big Bang for me I think is that Google is allowing third-party developers to build on their Google assistant AI so they're becoming a platform like Amazon as a platform like Google Play Store is a platform that other third-party developers who specialize in AI who specialize in using those voice commands can create tools and apps that you and I really care about think of the possibilities they're pretty big try and remember that eighty-five ninety percent of the world is not tech savvy and even if they did have the aptitude to be technically inclined they don't want to they want to get on with their life they don't enjoy tech as a hobby like most of you and I do so voice commands gets them out of the device and allows them to interact with the rest of the world different wearables allow us to do that this is partly why Apple made such a big deal out of the wireless headsets they look a bit wonky right now but I think wearables are going to allow us to do that when technology and IP devices can be put into our clothes into all devices around us we're connected everywhere to everything and we're not tethered to the rock and chain that is our phone right now I think that is the new frontier imagine if you can just tell your refrigerator to make a list of things that you need to buy on groceries and then they're immediately bought for you on Amazon or some other service like Amazon and it's delivered to your house hey I can begin to do that type of thing what are the things that you think are possible with AI technology I'm talking smooth fast contextual interaction what they bought that can do the things that frankly you don't want to do let me know in the comments below if you guys remember from like 15 years ago when people were making money hand over fist in the.com bubble remember we didn't call it a dotnet bubble or dot org bubble we didn't call them dot biz billionaires we called them dot com billionaires because that's the power of calm now why is that because no domain name extension tells your story with the same degree of trust as a.com or.net domain name dot com and.net domain name extensions inject credibility in to your online presence save fifteen percent on domain names and web hosting when you use our coupon code Android at domain.com check out when you think domain names think domain.com
