Highlights Nothing Phone (3) postponed until 2025 to prioritize AI integration. AI-powered home screen launcher dynamically tailors content throughout the day. Upcoming AI voice companion aims to integrate seamlessly with all device functions. ChatGPT integration already available across several Nothing products Yeah, the hype around AI is inescapable these days, and tech companies are rushing to integrate the buzzworthy technology into their products. Nothing, the consumer tech brand from Carl Pei, is no exception. In a video posted today, Pei discussed the company's AI ambitions while also revealing that the highly anticipated Nothing Phone (3) won't arrive until 2025. This isn’t Nothing’s first rodeo with AI though after having announced ChatGPT integration across several of its products as part of the latest Nothing update. But what is Pei talking about the future? Nothing's AI Vision: A "Post-App World"? There's been a lot of hype around AI. Some great, some confusing.

The demo saw the AI grill Pei about his favourite personality characteristics and accents so that it could shape itself into his dream digital companion. Because who doesn't want an omnipresent AI sifting through their phone, earbuds, and maybe even their dreams? Nothing Phone (3) Delayed for Proper AI Integration AI-powered home screen launcher dynamically tailors content throughout the day In the midst of these revelations about AI, the bombshell was Pei confirming that the Nothing Phone (3) won't hit the scene until 2025. The long delay is to give Nothing proper time to deeply integrate AI capabilities in a way that is "useful and brings a smile to people's faces." Nothing suggests it might integrate with Glyph lights or on the lockscreen in the future While the company's AI ambitions seem high, waiting for a new flagship phone for two years will be like a bitter pill for Nothing fans. Pei said that the product will have to \"get it right\" by perfectly integrating hardware and AI, and it seems it is going to be a priority over a quick launch. AI Everywhere: Gimmick or Game-Changer? Nothing Phone (3) Delayed to 2025 as AI Ambitions Take Centre Stage in New Teaser Video With AI hype reaching its peak, all major tech giants are trying to somehow implement the technology, sometimes in an odd way, which is more like a gimmick than something authentic. The Nothing vision of a pervasive AI assistant invading every nook of your smartphone experience is pretty likely to polarize opinions.
