The panel reviews 2025’s biggest tech moments, noting that despite intense scrutiny, no major big-tech breakup occurred. The Pixel 10 stood out as the top Android phone, while Waymo made little mainstream progress. AI showed flashes of promise—Gemini advanced significantly and AI music demonstrated creativity—but most AI agents and hardware like the Humane Pin failed to deliver. The iPhone 17 Pro was praised for refinement, though not revolutionary. Threads gained cultural traction via Instagram, while Blue Sky fostered more authentic discourse. Ethical concerns emerged over AI mimicking real people, and buzzwords like 'agentic' were mocked for vagueness. Policy-wise, Meta avoided antitrust action, and Brendan Carr’s free speech stance sparked debate. Looking ahead, Valve’s Linux push and Apple’s potential foldable or touchscreen Mac could reshape markets. Meanwhile, simple smart home devices won favor for usability, and in-person keynotes made a comeback with Amazon and Meta leading the charge.
