YouTuber Finds Google Pixel 8 Pro's AI Features Require Constant Cloud Connection, Contradicting Marketing Claims of On-Device Tensor G3 Performance

Popular YouTuber @Mrwhosetheboss claims Google Pixel 8 Pro offloads AI processing to the cloud despite Tensor G3 marketing.

@Mrwhosetheboss highlights generative features like AI wallpapers need permanent internet connection.

This contrasts with Google's claims of Tensor G3's powerful on-device AI capabilities.

Benchmark tests show Tensor G3 performance closer to mid-range Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2.

Google reportedly blocked benchmark apps during Pixel 8 Pro review period.
