    Wireless chips use a standard M.2 interface, same as SSDs, it would be weird if companies didn’t support this in the future. 4G - > 5G I think was already proof enough that it can be done.

    The operating system is open source, so anyone and their AI agent can add support in the software/firmware.

      M2 is standard now but there were many before it and there will be many after it. Vibe coding drivers for modems might not be a viable strategy either. Modems are extremely proprietary things that are subject to boatloads of regulations so it’s a bit of a miracle they are running on relatively open systems now.
