What Comes After Mobile? Meta’s Andrew Bosworth on AI and Consumer Tech

Andrew Bosworth, David George

Meta envisions a post-smartphone era driven by AI-powered AR glasses like Orion, which aim to replace touch interfaces with natural interaction modalities while leveraging open-source models to accelerate innovation. This strategic pivot shifts the market from app-centric selection to AI agent orchestration, though widespread adoption faces significant hurdles regarding hardware constraints, regulatory privacy concerns, and the societal acceptance of always-on devices. By rejecting passive technological evolution, the company positions these developments as a generational opportunity to fundamentally redesign human-computer interaction despite the risks of social backlash.
