RethinkX's Adam Dorr: iPhone in the AI era feels absurdly primitive, I'd switch to an xAI phone instantly

RethinkX researcher Adam Dorr says he would '1000%' switch to an xAI/SpaceX phone in a heartbeat. In his view, using an iPhone in the AI era feels absurdly primitive—passwords, Apple Pay, networking, and autocorrect never 'just work,' and international travel with travel eSIMs makes it worse. Jobs, he quips, would be rolling in his grave.
