Summary
According to a post on X by @tanayj, Tanay Jaipuria quotes Qualcomm's CEO saying leading AI companies are targeting smartphones by 2028 that can run 100-billion-parameter models locally with all-day battery life. The post also notes that Qualcomm's IQ10 robotics chip has shown support for models of about 80 billion parameters. A linked share points to a Chipstrat piece on Qualcomm custom ASICs citing two hyperscaler programs, but the snippet is cut off before giving more detail.

Why it matters
If the claims hold, developers building on-device AI and robotics could run larger models without relying as heavily on cloud servers. Chip buyers and investors may watch whether Qualcomm or its partners confirm the 2028 target and the custom ASIC programs. These claims come secondhand through a social post and are not confirmed in the source material.
