The iPhone is a line of smartphones designed and marketed by Apple Inc. These devices run Apple's iOS mobile operating system. The first-generation iPhone was announced by Steve Jobs on January 9, 2007, and since then, Apple has released new iPhone models and iOS updates annually. iPhones are known for their user-friendly interface, high-quality cameras, and integration with Apple's ecosystem of services and devices.
Video phones were invented in the 70s. Nobody had them until iPhones came around.
""The iPhone was mentioned by the speaker as an example of technology that existed but wasn't widely adopted until a specific product (the iPhone itself) made it popular, drawing a parallel to the potential future of automated jobs."
