Why your phone still isn't the ultimate AI assistant
Notas del episodio
Nearly every smartphone launched in the past year features agentic AI capabilities, offering users an early look at what a fully agentic smartphone future could do for them. Of course, the tech powering it is driven by the chipsets.
In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we talked with Vinesh Sukumar, Qualcomm's VP of AI at the Snapdragon Summit, the company's annual conference where it launches its latest processors. This year, the launch included the mobile platforms Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 for phones and Snapdragon Sound Elite Gen 2 for wearables.
Vinesh discussed how the chipsets came to be, including the special considerations made during their design such as improving connectivity, on-device support for large models, longer battery life, and other features crucial to smoothly running agentic AI applications. We also discussed what the future of a truly agentic AI phone looks like and what's been holding it back.
Topics covered:
• What an ideal agentic smartphone experience would look like
• The demands agentic AI models make of mobile chipsets
• The obstacles to agentic solutions becoming a game changer
• The crawl, run, walk phases of agentic solutions, and where we are now
• The role of other smart devices in creating agentic experiences
• How support for a 30 billion MoE on-device model was made possible
• Qualcomm's role in working with partners to bring AI experiences to life
If you want to learn more about how the latest chipsets will change the future of Android flagship devices in the next year, including new AI experiences, this conversation will give you a clear idea.
