早在四月份，就听闻 ChatGPT 开发商 OpenAI 正与前苹果设计总监 Jony Ive 合作开发一款硬件设备，而 Ive 的最新个人报道也证实了这一传言。
The New York Times mentioned the project in a new story about Ive published this week.. It is reported that last year, at the introduction of Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky, Ive had dinner with OpenAI CEO Altman.
The two then developed a plan to create a new type of computing device powered by generative artificial intelligence. The core idea is that the rapidly developing capabilities of AI will usher in new breakthroughs in the way people interact with computers and software.
The report said,The topic they discussed revolved around "How generative artificial intelligence can create a new computing device"The technology can do more for users than traditional software, such as summarizing and prioritizing information, identifying and naming objects, and booking travel and other complex requests.
This may sound familiar because similar attempts have been made before.
For example, Rabbit R1, released earlier this year, claims to be able to automatically handle operations such as booking flights, movie tickets, and even calling a taxi after being trained on thousands of interfaces.
Sadly, the device never took off, just like the Humane AiPin it was trying to surpass. The concept was similar to the Rabbit R1, using generative AI to largely replace the smartphone, but the wearable gadget has been plagued by battery life and overheating issues since it hit the market.
Another reason these generative AI devices have not been successful may be that consumers prefer to use AI services on their smartphones rather than dedicated AI hardware devices..
Still, Ive and Altman's startup is committed to better things, and the company has managed to bring in some key talent.
The current 10-person team includes Tang Tan and Evans Hankey, both former heads of design at Apple who worked closely with Ive on best-selling products such as the iPhone.
Ive's company Love From is reportedly leading the design of the product, but then again, the Humane AiPin was also designed and launched by former Apple employees.
To house their operations, Ive and his team spent $60 million in February to purchase a 32,000-square-foot building in San Francisco called the LittleFox Theater.
Funding such an ambitious undertaking will be no small feat: Emerson Collective, the company founded by Ive and Laurene Powell Jobs, has reportedly invested and plans to raise up to $1 billion more from investors by the end of the year.
Described as an "AI iPhone," the device's design is said to be likely to draw on the original iPhone and touch technology..
As for the specific details of this mysterious product, they have not yet been disclosed.
Marc Ne, co-founder of Love FromXiaobai Navigationwson told the New York Times that the final form and release date of the product are still being determined.
