OpenAI's First Device Is A $300-Plus Smart Speaker
- OpenAI is developing a portable, doughnut-shaped smart speaker roughly the size of a hockey puck, designed in partnership with former Apple design chief Jony Ive using premium metal construction.
- The device features "moving parts that help give it personality" alongside cameras and sensors, enabling it to function as an AI-fueled companion supporting humanlike voice interactions similar to ChatGPT.
- OpenAI discussed pricing the speaker between $300 and $400, significantly exceeding Amazon's smart speaker range of $40 to $240, yet smart speakers have historically struggled to achieve profitability.
- On Thursday, OpenAI filed a motion to dismiss Apple's lawsuit, arguing the complaint frames "ordinary conduct" out of context and asserting it is "building something entirely new and different from anything at Apple."
- OpenAI plans to unveil the device later this year ahead of a 2027 release, positioning it as one of "roughly five different products" currently in development across the company's hardware division.
