OpenAI is reportedly collaborating with former Apple designer Jony Ive on three AI-driven devices: a smart speaker with a camera and microphone priced around $200–$300, plus a smart lamp and AR smart glasses. The devices are pitched as potential successors to the smartphone, with launch targets not expected until 2027–2028, but the details come from a report and remain speculative.
OpenAI is collaborating with former Apple designer Jony Ive on its first hardware product—a smart speaker with an integrated camera and facial-recognition to tailor usage and enable purchases—slated for a 2027 launch at about $200–$300. The company is also exploring a smart lamp and AI glasses for 2028+, but those devices are in early development and could be canceled; internal design tensions and secrecy around LoveFrom’s concepts are noted as OpenAI engineers work to turn prototypes into a finalized product.
OpenAI is reportedly plotting an AI-powered smart speaker with a built-in facial-recognition camera, designed by Jony Ive and expected to cost about $200–$300; a launch could slip to 2027 at the earliest, and the device may use facial recognition for sign-in or purchases, raising privacy concerns amid a broader push into AI hardware.
OpenAI is reportedly developing AI-powered consumer devices, with a camera-equipped smart speaker set for early 2027 and priced around $200–$300. The project, led by ex-Apple designer Jony Ive after OpenAI’s io Products acquisition, may also include smart glasses (2028) and a smart lamp, though privacy, power, and manufacturing challenges have caused delays.
Ferrari previews the Luce, its first all-electric supercar, with an interior designed by Jony Ive and Marc Newson’s LoveFrom. The cabin features a three-display cockpit (an instrument cluster that moves with the steering wheel, a central display on a ball‑and‑socket joint, and a rear control panel), a palm-rest interface, a rotating central screen, and a mechanical multigraph display; materials include anodized aluminum and Corning glass, plus an E Ink key fob. The exterior will debut in May 2026, and Ive notes the five-year secretive collaboration and the heavy safety regulations of auto design.
Ferrari revealed the Luce’s interior, its first fully electric car, designed by Jony Ive’s LoveFrom, featuring glass and brushed aluminum surfaces, tactile aluminum buttons, a movable iPad‑like cockpit display, a glass gear shifter, and Gorilla Glass components. Exterior details will be shown in May, and the name has shifted from Elettrica to Luce to emphasize Ferrari DNA and a driver‑focused, tactile experience.
Ferrari previews the Luce EV interior designed by Jony Ive and Marc Newson’s LoveFrom, featuring a retro-futuristic cockpit built around a large OLED gauge cluster and a swiveling center screen. The cabin emphasizes metal and glass, tactile controls, and a restrained Apple-like aesthetic, signaling a bold shift for Ferrari’s design language. Critics praise the depth and craftsmanship of the display while noting a sparse center console and a synthetic “fake” torque-shift via paddle shifters as potential drawbacks, making it a high-risk, high-reward move for the brand.
OpenAI says it is on track to reveal its first AI device in the second half of 2026, designed by Jony Ive's oi Products.
