What's interesting to me about the Pixel phone - which I've been using for maybe the last year - is that it grows into you. Maybe in the future we'll talking about 'wearing in' or 'breaking in' an AI tool much the way we talk today about good leather. I bought it specifically for the speech recognition, which works reasonably well even without training, but I've appreciated how it adjusts itself to optimize for the apps I use most frequently (which works quite well except for the time it turned off GPS during a lull in my biking). Donald Clark talks about the AI in Google's phone at length in this article, and I think he's quite right to say that "the AI in every modern smartphone will be in all online learning in the future."
