OpenAI's Jony Ive-Designed Device Delayed to 2027 OpenAI's first Jony Ive-designed hardware device won't ship to customers until next year, new court filings show (via _Wired_). The motion stems from a trademark infringement lawsuit filed last year by audio device startup iyO. The company sued OpenAI after the latter acquired io, a startup founded by Apple's former design chief. OpenAI's original stated goal was to ship the ChatGPT-powered device before the end of 2026. But in the latest filing, the company said its first hardware device won't ship to customers before the end of February 2027. OpenAI has not created any packaging or marketing materials for its first hardware device either, according to the documents. The filing also said that OpenAI had reviewed its product-naming strategy and "decided not to use the name 'io' (or 'IYO,' or any capitalization of either) in connection with the naming, advertising, marketing, or sale of any artificial intelligence-enabled hardware products." Few details are known about the first AI consumer product that OpenAI is working on. The gadget – pitched as a "third core device" that would sit in your pocket, or on your desk alongside a MacBook Pro and iPhone – apparently won't be an in-ear device or a wearable, based on previous filings related to this lawsuit. Previous leaks have revealed that the gadget will be pocket-sized, contextually aware of your surroundings and life, and completely screen-free. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman apparently told OpenAI staff it's "the coolest piece of technology that the world will have ever seen" after testing Ive's prototype at home. The development comes as now-debunked rumors circulated on Reddit over the weekend claiming that OpenAI had pulled a Super Bowl ad unveiling its upcoming device. The now-deleted post shared an alleged ad featuring actor Alexander Skarsgård in silver headphones, tapping a reflective puck. The video was widely circulated on social media, including by Reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian.

Jony Ive’s first OpenAI device said to be ‘audio-based’ OpenAI is intensifying its focus on audio artificial intelligence technologies, consolidating teams and overhauling its voice models to support an upcoming AI-powered personal device that emphasizes voice interaction over traditional screens. According to a report published on January 1, 2026, by _The Information_, OpenAI has unified its engineering, product, and research teams over the past two months to advance its audio AI capabilities. This internal reorganization aims to improve the company’s voice models, which currently lag behind its leading text-based systems like those powering ChatGPT. Sources familiar with the matter told _The Information_ that the effort is directly tied to OpenAI’s plans for a new consumer hardware device, described as “largely audio-based.” The device is expected to launch in approximately one year, potentially in late 2026 or early 2027, and could form part of a broader family of products, including smart glasses or screenless smart speakers designed to function as intuitive AI companions rather than conventional tools. Jony Ive (left) and Sam Altman A key milestone in this push is the anticipated release of a new advanced audio model in early 2026, likely by the end of the first quarter. This model is reported to feature significantly more natural-sounding speech, better handling of interruptions during conversations, and the ability to speak simultaneously with the user—capabilities that surpass current voice AI systems, which struggle with overlapping speech and real-time natural dialogue. The hardware initiative gained momentum following OpenAI’s acquisition in May 2025 of io Products, a startup founded by former Apple design chief Jony Ive, in a deal valued at around $6.5 billion. Ive and his team have taken on significant design responsibilities at OpenAI, with a stated priority on reducing screen dependency and addressing perceived flaws in past consumer gadgets. Industry observers note that an audio-first approach aligns with Ive’s vision for less addictive, more ambient computing experiences. This development positions OpenAI in a growing trend among tech companies to shift toward voice-centric interfaces, amid concerns over screen fatigue. Competitors and startups have explored similar screenless devices, such as the Humane AI Pin (which faced commercial challenges) and emerging AI wearables like pendants or rings. OpenAI’s entry, backed by its generative AI expertise and Ive’s design pedigree, could redefine personal AI interaction. While details on the exact form factor remain limited — earlier leaks have suggested possibilities ranging from a desk-based device to wearables — the emphasis on voice reflects CEO Sam Altman’s broader critique of “bolting AI onto existing” products, favoring instead AI-native redesigns. OpenAI has not officially commented on the specifics, but the accelerated audio efforts underscore its ambition to extend beyond software into consumer hardware, potentially challenging established players like Apple and Google in the voice assistant space. **MacDailyNews Take:** There are so many situations where voice is just not appropriate. Just imagine everyone yapping to their OpenAI gadget in an open office setting, a stadium, a bus, train, or plane… A “largely audio-based” wearable device seems overly limiting (however, it would be relatively trivial to utilize a smartphone to allow text input to such a device, greatly increasing its potential use cases). Of course, after years of HomePod use – albeit it with Siri, an underperforming piece of software awaiting a big upgrade – a voice-focused interface _that just works_ on a device such as a smart speaker would be very appealing. * * * ‎ **Please help support MacDailyNews — and enjoy subscriber-only articles, comments, chat, and more — by subscribing to our Substack : macdailynews.substack.com.

OpenAI 重整音訊模型，首款「AI 智慧筆」傳由鴻海接手代工 * * OpenAI 傳出大舉押注音訊 AI，這不只是為了讓 ChatGPT 語音對話聽起來更自然，根據外媒 The Information 報導，OpenAI 過去 2 個月內整合多個工程、產品及研究團隊，全面重整音訊模型，為預計大約 1 年後推出、以音訊為核心的硬體產品做準備。 發展音訊模型這個舉動反映整個科技產業的發展方向，意即邁向一個螢幕退居次要、音訊轉為核心的未來。 回顧近幾年，智慧音箱讓語音助理成為超過三分之一美國家庭的日常配備。Meta 已為 Ray-Ban Meta 眼鏡加入新功能，透過 5 顆麥克風陣列，協助使用者在嘈雜的環境聽清楚對話。Google 自去年 6 月起在美測試 Audio Overviews，將 AI 搜尋結果轉為語音摘要。特斯拉則把 Grok 聊天機器人整合至電動車，打造一個可透過自然對話處理導航、空調等功能的 AI 助理。 硬體裝置外型或許各有不同，然而核心論述一致：音訊將成未來介面，不同空間例如住家、車輛，以及像是行動裝置、穿戴裝置等，都在讓音訊成為操控介面的一部分。 根據 The Information 報導，OpenAI 計劃 2026 年初推出新一代音訊模型，將會具備更自然的聲音表現、能像真人對話一樣處理插話、甚至能在使用者說話的同時提出合適回應，這是目前模型還無法做到的能力。OpenAI 同時也構想推出一系列裝置，可能包含智慧眼鏡、無螢幕的智慧音箱，AI 助理定位不再只是工具，更像是陪伴者。 去年 5 月，OpenAI 宣布收購由前蘋果設計長艾夫（Jony Ive）創辦的新創公司「io」，並計劃打造下一代 AI 硬體平台，他便將「降低裝置成癮」視為優先目標，並把以音訊為核心的設計概念，視為修正過去以來消費性裝置錯誤使用的一次大好機會。 值得關注還有，爆料者近日在 X 發文稱，OpenAI 與艾夫合作打造的個人裝置，專案代號「Gumdrop」，可望是一款便於隨身攜帶的 AI 智慧筆，可讓使用者手寫筆記，並利用 AI 技術轉為數位文字，上傳到 ChatGPT 進行摘要或其他處理。換句話說，不需要螢幕，透過語音方式也能記錄想法，創造更多互動。 AI 智慧筆原本設定中國廠商立訊精密代工生產，但因製造地點出現意見分歧，改由鴻海接手，在越南的產線進行生產，在美生產也有可能。但對此 AI 智慧筆的規格細節、具體功能等，OpenAI 尚未透露更多細節。 * OpenAI Ramps Up Audio AI Efforts Ahead of Device * OpenAI and Jony Ive’s upcoming AI hardware could be a pen: Here’s what we know （首圖來源：shutterstock） 文章看完覺得有幫助，何不給我們一個鼓勵 請我們喝杯咖啡 ## 想請我們喝幾杯咖啡？ ### 每杯咖啡 65 元 x 1 x 3 x 5 x 您的咖啡贊助將是讓我們持續走下去的動力 **總金額共新臺幣 0 元** 《關於請喝咖啡的 Q & A》 ### 留給我們的話 取消 確認 從這裡可透過《Google 新聞》追蹤 TechNews * * * 科技新知，時時更新 科技新報粉絲團 加入好友 訂閱免費電子報 * * * 關鍵字: Jony Ive , OpenAI , 立訊精密 , 鴻海
