Nothing says that this is just “the first step towards the AI-Mool operating system.” no way. The playground, the user-designed, is nothing full of AI-related apps, neither is there anything, nor is it an operating system-it is built on Android. But the idea land, and below propagation, it is really exciting – a glimpse of a smartphone that feels more personal and optimal, with a clear vision where it can go into the future.
The bold announcement of an AI-origin OS centers at the launch of essential, which does not say anything that brings us closer to a world “where equipment is compatible with people, not in another way.” In speaking plain, there is nothing necessary “Name for all our AI-related products,” Founder and CEO Carl Pei says The verge London Startup today, despite claiming to unveil the necessary, the line actually has many products that are already live, including AI search equipment and essential spaces, which conducts voice notes and images.
What is really new is the playground, and there are required apps with it. The playground is basically nothing at the app store. Filling it will be the app designed in the required apps, an AI-operated tool that can create a simple app with written indications alone. In short, users can design their own apps for their needs. Nothing suggests a mood tracker that sinks with a music playlist, a receipt-to-expenditure-cost pipeline, or an app that suggests what to wear based on your wardrobe and upcoming appointments.

It is clear that this PEI imagines as a very large ecosystem, its initial stage, there is nothing, “first step” comments are more understandable. At the moment, you can only design widgets, which clearly limits what they can do. Apps should also be made on a web platform with written input, the point at which the creators can install them on their phone or add them to the playground for others to download them. This is especially available for the phone, with the exception of the phone 1, which Pei says that now the major updates are not available, so new apps cannot install.
Over time, Pei tells Ruckus This process of app creation will be “more and more comfortable”, which will be done directly on the phone and perhaps only by speaking. Widgets are either not the last game, PEI says, equal to the standard apps we do today, forecast more competent apps taking the entire screen.
If this idea stops, there are also kernels of a new manufacturer economy. The playground users have to take users and make remix apps by others, open source community for a similar fashion to build, build and develop. For someone who speaks a lot about Moats smartphone giant Apple and Google, built around his app store, PEI claims that he is not thinking about how to mud the store yet. He says, “I think before the business model we can turn on needs to reach a certain level of scale,” he says that “YouTube can be a good example where it can go potentially”.
Finally-and here where the AI-Mool OS idea comes-Payi says that the phones can be more active, can change the placement of the apps, or even we suggest apps based on how we use the phone. But still, it is not an OS. This is an interface. PEI accepts this issue as an inclination on semantics to skirt: “I think the word or noun ‘OS’ can be interpreted in different ways.”
Pei tells Ruckus Google has no intention of leaving Android, the system on which its products are currently created. “We are not touching the lower level code,” they say. “There is a great platform to make Android, and Android already has a rich developer ecosystem,” PEI explains. People will still need to download apps such as Instagram or Tikok, when they start their phones, after all.
It is an exciting new feature and potentially a new and exciting manufacturer economy. But nothing has to be a long way before going to go, it cannot actually go alone. In departure from hypnotic AI or Openai partnership with former Apple designer Joni Ive, PEI is not yet promising to remove with smartphones. It is clear that Pei believes that the phone is to stay here when he asks himself, “When I am ready to say goodbye to apps?” And answer: “You know, never soon.”
