BONUS - By 2036, We Just Want Our Phones to Stop Dying 🔋😩

What do people really want their phones to do in the future? According to a viral survey of thousands of Americans, the answers range from slightly unsettling to full-on sci-fi. 🤖📱 On The Jubal Show, the crew dives into predictions about phones reading your thoughts, giving unsolicited life advice, managing your money, and even projecting holograms — all while questioning whether we actually want technology doing that much thinking for us.

As the list gets more advanced (and more concerning), one surprisingly simple wish rises to the top — and it says a lot about how we actually use our phones every single day. You might be shocked at what didn’t win.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
What do you wish your phone could do for you?
It's the Jewbile show, probably everything, which is why scientists
survey thousands of people asking them one simple question, what
do you hope your phone can do for you? By
twenty thirty six. So we'll go over it now and
you can see just how much we want don't want
to do things for ourselves. We'll tell you what the
number one thing that people want their phone to be
able to do in ten years is in just a second.

(00:23):
But let's go over some of the top responses from
the survey, anticipating my thoughts and auto inserting them without
me having.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
To type, Oh, that'd be nice. That would be nice.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Actually, I think about that a lot, actually, because I'm
a thought in my head and I don't feel like
typing it down or saying it to myself or whatever.
So I just want nothing will happen with it. But
if I could go for my brain to like a
typing it, that'd be nice.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Direct connect. Yeah, it would be cool.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
I feel like it kind of does that though, don't
like the ads already pop up like what's in your brain?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
No, but I need like my specific idea. You could
think a thing I could.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
I want to write this thing, but I don't want
to use my fingers to type on a keyboard because
it sounds exhausting. Yeah, so I want to just be
able to think it and then your phone can take
it down for you.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
That's really scary.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
What if you were thinking bad things and it just
like glitched and did something I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Supposed to do?

Speaker 4 (01:10):
Your inside thoughts a murder.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
We're going over a survey of thousands of Americans asking
them what they wish their phone would be able to
do in ten years from now.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
I'll tell you what the number one is.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
And one number one thing isn't just a second but
take control of my finances and monthly bill paying, so
you'd never have to sit down and pay your bills ever.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Again, that'd be awesome. But don't we already have auto pay? Yeah,
it's not basically what that is pretty much the same thing,
but you have to sign up for it.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, as long as you do at the beginning. Like,
I haven't paid a bill in a like I can't
even tell you how many months, just because I feel
like everything detracts.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah, oh so nice, But I guess your phone would
just automatically take control your finances and make all your
decisions for you when it comes to money, which all
got'd be fine.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
When it comes to taxes.

Speaker 4 (01:56):
I wish it would just I feel like there's so
many problems here though, Like I feel like it would
be easier to steal money from people that way.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Wow, it's a computer icke.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yeah, but you can deal it with your brank already.
This way, it just like relieves the thought of having
to set up for auto pay or it leaves any
kind yike a.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah, you just don't want to think anymore pretty much.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Here is another response from the survey asking thousands of
Americans what they hope their phone can do for them
in ten years.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Listen in and instantly give you.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Suggestions, helpful suggestions, so real time advice without asking. I mean,
I I feel like it's pretty close to that anyway. Yeah,
because it already listens to you no matter what. Yeah,
So if you're talking about something and then all of
a sudden you open up anything, there's an ad for
exactly what we're talking about.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Which is nice.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
It would be nice, though, to just have a conversation
with it instead of having to type your problem into
like chat GPT to get advice, Like it'd be cooler
if you could just be driving and you're like, you know,
I don't know what to do.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Should I call him?

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Or should I not? You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (02:57):
It makes the need for a friend away just to
use your phone, because sometimes you don't need your friend
to tell you I told.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
You no, or in mad conversation, like if you're in
a relationship and you're in an argument and it's like,
don't do not say.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
What you're thinking about. I don't say that. That's just
gonna escalate. But I could also tell everybody no, so
and so is correct. That's the winner of this artist.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
That would really make people mad if you weren't the
one correct and right there.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
What are the things that humans want their phones to
be able to do ten years from now? According to
a recent survey that's going viral, three D holograms cool.
I don't want that phones that protects holograms so you
can have three D meetings or quote, manipulate objects in
three D?

Speaker 2 (03:40):
WHOA magnipulate objects? I don't even know what that means.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Mind never reminds me. All these kind of reindmy of
the things that we're in like avengers, like where you
could have meetings but just like holograms and they go away.
But it'd be nice if you had one of those
that was like a whiteboard and then you could also
like write with your fingers, so you can just like
explain your thoughts.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
On in air on a virtual wideboard that future.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah. You know what would be cool too is if
they could have a bubble that would just tune out
everybody outside of the bubble, so when you walk around
in your bubble, it's silence, it's peace, and the phone
just protects you.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
You know.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Go to the SPA to that.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
We're going over a survey of thousands of Americans on
what they hope their phone can do for them in
ten years. We'll tell you what the number one response
was in just a second, but real time language translations,
so you could talk to somebody on the phone or wherever,
even if you don't speak the same language.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
That's dope.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
I love that they've made like those in ear pieces
where it's like if both of you were wearing them
and you're speaking different languages then, which is really cool.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
I think those are cool, but I never trust them. Well, no,
I don't.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
I just don't trust it that somebody hasn't hacked into it,
and it's making me say all kinds of weird things,
talk about their mother.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
You can.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
And the number one response, according to the survey, of
the things that people hope their phone can do for
them in ten years. Remember, there's been all this stuff,
three D holograms, being able to read your thoughts and
write it.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Down for you.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
This is really the only thing that people want last
an entire week on a single charge.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
That's it. Yet a little bit, I would love that
