About

This is an unreleased, unannounced hardware device that OpenAI is reportedly developing with former Apple designer Jony Ive. According to a Bloomberg report by Mark Gurman, relayed by The Verge, it is essentially a smart speaker without a display: battery-powered, doughnut-shaped and roughly the size of a hockey puck. All details come from unconfirmed reporting, not from OpenAI.

The device is said to have a distinctive look with moving parts, some of which move on their own to signal when it is responding or interacting. It reportedly includes lights, a camera system and other sensors. It is designed to be carried around the home with one hand, similar to Amazon's discontinued Tap speaker. Interaction is said to work like ChatGPT voice mode in the smartphone apps, but with more advanced models for humanlike interactivity.

Launch is reportedly expected in 2027 at a price above $300. It may be the first of a "family of devices" OpenAI plans. No official specifications, regional availability or ordering details have been published.

Doughnut shape, about the size of a hockey puck
Moving parts, lights, camera system and other sensors
ChatGPT voice-mode-style interaction with more advanced models
