People keep saying this but having to go through the Apple lock screen for every interaction would mean it never even gets used at all.

Not sure if the Rabbit device is the answer but I definitely see why people are trying.

I have the "two back tap" accessibility feature setup to start chat gpt voice. It works great. I just two back tap and look at the phone and its ready to start listening.
I tried that back tap thing, surprised how poorly it worked to be honest maybe there is a knack to it.

Thing is these AI devices will become actually interesting when they start being observers in your life too and pre-empting rather than the siri style ask and response and that just isn't possible on a locked down OS like iOS.

My really old LG android had a wake on doubletap screen. Worked really well. All newer phones have failed misserably or completely missed the function. Still miss it, was much more responsive than any new phone I bought.
