OpenAI's Portable AI Device: A New Way to Stay Connected
OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, is venturing into hardware development. It's reportedly working with Apple supplier Luxshare to create a portable AI device. This gadget aims to provide AI functionality without relying on apps on a phone or laptop.
The pocket AI device is designed to be sleek and easy to carry, making it approachable for everyday use. It aims to focus on giving users information, reminders, or real-time help, without distractions from apps and notifications. Potential features include instant voice answers, translation, task management, and offline functionality.
Other companies like Humane and Rabbit have explored similar AI devices, but adoption has been slow. OpenAI's entry into the market, along with Microsoft's current collaboration with them on mobile AI devices, could push the industry forward. The author, Bryan Tropeano, finds the idea appealing due to its potential to reduce distractions from smartphones. The competitive market includes Apple and Samsung, which are also embedding advanced AI into their smartphones.
OpenAI's pocket AI device, if successful, could reshape how we interact with AI, similar to how the iPod reshaped music. By providing AI functionality offline and without the need for apps, it could offer a new way to stay connected and productive on the go.
