Carl Pei seems to have intended for Nothing to have its own operating system so that their company would have something different from the competition. He wanted an operating system that Nothing himself had control over, could change the industry and at the same time generate revenue.
According to Pei, focusing the business on software is better because the income that can be generated is higher compared to hardware such as components and so on. He also believes that in the era of generative artificial intelligence, building your own operating system is easy.
In addition, Pei also told that Nothing wants their operating system to change the way users use devices and wants to come up with an innovation. For more than 40 years, computer systems have not changed much and by taking advantage of user data stored in a computer - a unique and more personalized operating system can actually be produced.
The operating system in the future will have AI integration, it is not an AI operating system but rather AI helps complete this operating system. The next generation Nothing OS will use AI entirely. It may be the first step in the concept of introducing a new operating system because Carl Pei realizes that individual operating systems are difficult to compete in the market anymore when there are many different ecosystems and application support from various developers. Maybe after Nothing OS 3.0 we will see something unique?
