    Good luck. People will not be able to control their Sonos, listen to their music, use banking apps or check their social.

    Not having enough the right apps killed blackberry, windows mobile, windows phone, symbian and palmOS. But sure, a chatbot will be different.

    It would have worked 10+ years ago, when we had open apis and could connect to services without being forced into their walled gardens. But now? Nah.

    Edit: typo and clarified apps

      no, but you see… all the apps are going to be vibe-coded on the fly every time you want to open one! Want to browse lemmy? “The user wants to browse a website, let’s build a browser…” [a few days later] “you reached your token limit, do you want to move to the Pro $1500 per month subscription and continue building your browser?”

      Can’t you just vibe code your banking app? As long as I can make my balance higher, this will beat iphone rounded corners banking app.
