For all social media users, the cell phone serves as the initial point of contact. With AI, the cell phone is becoming a sophisticated device for gathering information, creating, and reaching others.

At present, the U.S. Government has selected five companies as preferred providers for A.I. development.

• Google (Alphabet): This company operates the Google DeepMind AI research division. It developed the Gemini AI model, which is integrated across its products.
• Microsoft: Microsoft has invested heavily in AI through its partnership with OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT. It integrates AI features, such as Copilot, into its Azure cloud services and Microsoft 365 suite.
• Amazon: Amazon dominates AI infrastructure through Amazon Web Services (AWS), providing cloud services that many other AI companies use.
• Meta Platforms (Facebook): This company develops large language models, including LLaMA. It integrates AI for content moderation and user engagement across its social media platforms.
• Apple: Apple focuses on integrating AI into its ecosystem through “Apple Intelligence.” This enhances user experience with features like Siri and photo editing. 

These companies, along with others such as Anthropic, Cohere, and IBM, have made voluntary commitments to the U.S. government for safe and responsible AI development. Regulatory bodies, such as the FTC and state governments, focus on ensuring responsible use, preventing discrimination, and mandating consumer disclosures.

THESE COMPANIES will win the A.I. technology wars.

Content and news providers are always concerned with being DE platformed by outfits like Google, Youtube, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram. and the like.

What if, however, some of these platforms migrated into your phones seamlessly leveraging A.I. Other App platforms themselves would be DE platformed by your phone in this process.

How AI and Your Cell Phone will work around social media apps

Within the next year, there won’t be ANY apps. There will just be AI agents working behind the scenes on your cell phone device.

Instead of a notes app, it will just be added to your AI memory. Instead of a video app, the AI will respond to your voice and adjust as you want. Instead of text app, your AI will just talk to another person’s AI.

This is why Elon Musk created GROK. This is exactly what GROK is designed to do.

On December 22nd, a new product called SERIES was quietly launched. The product is a social media texting embed to any user’s cell phone.

The product creates a social media context from the phone itself, eliminating bots, fake accounts and the static that comes with social media platform posts.

MyrtleBeachSC News has been experimenting with a product like this for some time now.

The press release reads as follows:

New York City, NY – December 22, 2025; From Facebook’s News Feed to Snapchat’s Stories, cell phone users have had no shortage of ways to share content online. But lately, people have grown hesitant to share their most authentic moments due to the stigma of current social media. A new social network on iMessage recently hit one million messages by reapproaching how we share content online.

Series, the social network on iMessage, announced that today it has exchanged over 1 million messages while also reaching 10,000 daily active users – all without feeds, followers, or the anxiety that’s driven an entire generation away from public posting.

The milestone comes as social media faces an existential crisis. The head of instagram Adam Mosseri commented on a ‘paradigm shift’ away from public posting, with cell phone users increasingly retreating to direct messages and closed groups. For non-creators, the pressure to curate perfect content has made sharing feel like work rather than genuine human connection.

Series solves this by removing the concept of posting altogether. Cell phone users instead send a customizable message to a curated list of people within the platform, entirely on iMessage. The term series comes from the sequential approach the product takes to ensure a user’s message reaches the right people. Users have sent messages that have resulted in hired videographers, dates in Amsterdam and co-founding a business.

“Series emerged from the limitations of existing social platforms” says Nathaneo Johnson, CEO at Series. “We are all used to a feed where we express the best version of ourselves. But that rarely allows us to communicate our current state of expression – mainly due to the stigma of posting online. Series solves this by curating each interaction between your content and your audience to feel intimate and personal, something we couldn’t do before.”

​​

Series embraces this cell phone users’ “paradigm shift” rather than fighting it. By living within iMessage and focusing on private, one-to-one introductions rather than public broadcasting, the platform gives people what they actually want from social media: meaningful connections in a meaningful setting.

The approach represents a fundamental rethinking of what social networking means. Rather than optimizing for engagement metrics and time spent on the platform, Series optimizes for meeting the right person at the right time. The one million message milestone isn’t about content consumption – it’s about conversations had, introductions made, and long-term relationships explored.

Nathaneo Johnson and Sean Hargrow founded Series their junior year at Yale University after watching an entire generation grow exhausted by platforms designed for engagement over genuine connection. Both still attending Yale University, this duo has raised $5.1 million to date, has been featured on this year’s Forbes 30 under 30, and is now scaling what began as a college-first platform into a national movement.

For a generation raised on social media but exhausted by its demands, Series offers something different: connection without performance, community without curation, and social networking that doesn’t require you to be perfect – just human.

And it all happens on a cell phone, not on some social media app.
