In a shocking prediction that’s sending ripples through the tech world, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has declared that smartphones are on
the brink of obsolescence. The billionaire entrepreneur believes a
chilling new technology will soon replace our beloved handheld devices, leaving many experts concerned about the implications for privacy and personal freedom.
Gates envisions a world where smartphones are supplanted by electronic tattoos, a concept that sounds like it’s straight out of a science
fiction novel. These temporary, electrically conductive tattoos would
be applied directly to the skin, effectively turning our bodies into
living, breathing communication devices.
Originally developed by Chaotic Moon Studios for medical applications,
this futuristic technology has caught Gates’ attention as the next
frontier in personal computing. He’s so convinced of its potential that he’s invested heavily in its development, betting on it to become the smartphone of tomorrow.
The idea of having our communication devices literally under our skin
is both fascinating and unsettling. While it could revolutionize how we interact with technology and each other, it also raises serious
questions about privacy and the boundaries between human and machine.

Weird that there isn't a single actual quote of Gates saying ANYTHING in
that article.
In fact, the article doesn't quote ANYONE.

And rest assured that whatever eventually DOES "replace smartphones", Microsoft will miss the boat again.
