JosephJacks_ · x · 2026-09-24
Anshel Sag recaps Qualcomm's longest-ever Day 2 keynote at the Snapdragon Summit in Maui, where the company argued AI's future lives across distributed edge devices, PCs, and wearables. Key takeaways: Liquid Context from LiquidAI brings continuous memory and proactive cross-device agents to Snapdragon silicon (phones, PCs, Mercedes-Benz cockpits), fully local and private; wearables get agentic with native 1-bit multimodal model support on power-constrained devices, new industrial safety/hearing smart glasses with INSPECS Group, and AwareOS for glasses; plus a software-heavy slate validating the agentic claims made on Day 1.
