A theory that SpaceX could turn Starlink into a cellular alternative—and build an AI phone
A user suggests small, cheap endpoints around the world could use Starlink as a backbone for Wi-Fi.
TLDR
A user sketches a possible path for SpaceX: use rockets to put Starlink in space, serve hard-to-reach places such as airplanes, and connect phones directly in areas such as rural communities. They speculate that small, cheap endpoints could then use Starlink as a backbone to offer Wi-Fi instead of cellular service—and wonder whether an AI phone could follow.
