Experts consulted by this magazine believe so, taking into account the incursion into the market of new devices that they are exploring with the possibilities of Generative AIcapable of inferring what you need and creating content, text, music, images, video, stories and more.
Not for now. “It has had an impressive development over time. It was differentiated by the hardware, the camera, the zoom, how fast the processor was, the type of lenses, the number of pixels”explains José Tafur, partner and CTIO of PwC Peru. Then it was the technology behind the equipment, which allowed a series of interactions. We moved on to sensors and started talking about the Internet of Things, then AI, to be able to personalize the interaction even more. And now the race for generative AI has begun, he says.
He smartphone It is a technology aggregator. It is used as a camera, to take notes, order things, buy; although certain people find it more necessary now to have a personal assistant all the time. “My mother, for example, only uses her phone to call, check her Facebook and maybe WhatsApp. She doesn’t use everything she has a smartphone,” says Tafur.
The launch of new devices with AI has captured attention at the technology fairs in Barcelona and Las Vegas, the most important on a global scale, because they promise to unlock a universe of possibilities and interact with the world in a different way than we have been doing in recent years.

But “The world is not going to turn towards them. It is not a topic of trend, but of experimentation to test a first generation of devices that run with added generative AI. It is a first approach”says Jesús Veliz, a journalist specialized in technology and innovation.
“The benefit of this new technology It is hardware experimentation. The processes are now going to be automated. Today we already have an AI that infers, that generates, and that is the big difference with the technology that has preceded this advance. The great advantage for the corporate world is that better criteria will be established to enhance automated processes.”, he adds.
In the midst of this maelstrom of changes, it is important that users are aware of the risks and benefits of these new technologies, and that they use them responsibly, warns Daniel Falcón, manager of Neo Consulting.
“The launch of new devices with generative AI has captured attention because they promise to unlock a world of opportunities.”

“We must be careful because we are giving them very personal information. That is why it is essential that the consumer is well educated about how much information is being transferred and what is going to be done with it. Without paranoia and madness. “We need a more informed consumer”it states.
But what are these devices?
- Human AI PIN: Launched last year and priced at $700, it requires a $24 monthly subscription plan to work. It uses generative AI and partially connects to the internet. It has a Qualcomm chip, one of the market leaders. It looks like a clip that easily clips onto clothing, does not depend on a phone and is asked for whatever is required by voice or by touching it. Instantly translate conversations, exchange dollars and know how the weather will behave. Additionally, you can project images on your hand.
- Rabbit r1: It is a device in the form of a small orange box that works with generative AI, capable of booking flights or restaurants if you ask it, giving you the price of a stock on the stock market, ordering a taxi, making you listen to music or suggest what can be prepared by simply showing you the refrigerator. He promises to put words into action and be a “pocket companion.” It costs US$200 and does not require a subscription. It has a built-in camera, a small screen, and just one button you press to talk to it.

- Samsung S24 Ultra: It is the first smartphone with built-in generative AI. It can simultaneously translate a conversation and texts, recognize figures, and delete people or details from a photograph that you do not want to appear. It costs between S/ 5,429 and S/ 6,199. The Korean brand partnered with Google Cloud to implement Gemini Pro, so it can “understand, operate and combine different types of information, such as text, code, images and video. “From Samsung’s native apps, users can take advantage of summary functions in notes, voice recorder and keyboard.”
- Apple Vision Pro: It is a device that combines digital content with physical space. Using a headset with built-in high-tech headphones and microphones, you navigate using eyes, hands and voice. It is an immersive way to experience everything from office work and conversations to entertainment, thanks to a mix of virtual and augmented reality. It is equipped with a large number of sensors that track movement, gaze and gestures, allowing you to interact with the device naturally and intuitively. At its launch in the United States it was announced that the price would be US$3,500, without accessories.
Apple Vision Features: In terms of hardware, there is no debate: the Apple Vision Pro is the most powerful mixed reality device on the market. Ricardo Garza, from Softtek, mentions some particularities in which it takes advantage of its competition.
