Following the acquisition of former Apple designer Jony Ive’s artificial intelligence (AI) hardware startup io by Sam Altman’s OpenAI on Wednesday, information has surfaced about the AI device these two companies might be developing. As per an industry analyst, it is currently in a prototype phase with a size slightly larger than the failed Humane’s Ai Pin but it may still be as “elegant” as an iPod Shuffle. The device is slated to enter mass production in 2027.
