#2Very exciting. This must be a smart speaker right?

#3> One possibility is OpenAI is building its own operating system... Imagine an AI-native operating system that could generate apps in real-time based on what it believes its user needs, or one that listens to nearby conversations and automatically pulls up relevant information for its user.
I’m imagining that right now… it’s not looking good.

Jony Ive is involved, so it will probably cost $1,500 and require you to turn it upside down to charge it. But damn if it doesn't look sexy sitting on your desk...

#6And the timing of this rumor, which the article admits has absolutely no specifics nor leg to stand on, has certainly nothing to do with their attempt to raise funds at a $90 billion valuation.
I can't help thinking that we're in for another 'AI winter' after so much hype with Tesla, Nvidia and chatGPT.

It will also forego usability for appearance. Who needs a keyboard to type anyway...

#8An ever-changing UI has an enormous and unaddressed cost on users. Continual re-learning without choice in order to achieve the same tasks as always.
I imagine this will be accelerated with constantly renewed AI-generated app experiences.
If a company could freeze the UI for a person once they have mastered it for what they want to do with it without sacrificing security, etc. (easy if they separate the concerns properly) I'd buy the product. I'd almost pay a subscription for them to keep it the same, like how I pay youtube a subscription to remove their ads.

Indeed, and the buttons on it (power, mic on/off, volume up/down etc) will start failing or doubling the input as soon as the tiniest bit of dust breaches the gaps, thanks to the latest-and-greatest Tiger Moth mechanism which is designed for the perception of greater button travel while reducing the thickness of said buttons by 0.00000000017%.

#10I'm imagining a very elaborate microphone/speaker/camera/display device. Outer shell made using some exotic new ceramics process because glass, aluminum and titanium are all so 2023. Will never be mass-produced.
Or textile. I could imagine them going for something cuddly to balance out that creepy AI vibe.
