Now that Jonny Ive has joined Open AI. What do you think the first device will be?

Several sources note that the first device from OpenAI’s collaboration with Jony Ive isn’t intended to be another smartphone at all. Instead, it appears designed to deliver a new kind of computing experience—one that “moves consumers beyond screens” by emphasizing natural, ambient interaction and voice‐based interfaces rather than a traditional display^[1][2][3]. In fact, Sam Altman mentioned in one announcement that he’d been “able to live with” a prototype of what he described as “the coolest piece of technology that the world will have ever seen”^[1][6]. The idea is to create what some call the “iPhone of AI,” yet this new device is aimed at being less socially disruptive than today’s smartphones, hinting at a form factor that may be wearable or seamlessly integrated into the environment^[4][5]. Though details remain sparse and the exact form is still under wraps, the prevailing expectation is that the first product will inaugurate a family of devices built around more intuitive, screen-free interactions rather than trying to immediately replace the smartphone^[1][4].
