The Verge AI · rss · 2026-07-30
OpenAI president Greg Brockman has confirmed in a recent interview that the company is developing a "family of devices" designed for interacting with its AI models.
While there have been rumors of a smart speaker launching in 2027 or a wearable similar to the Humane AI pin, Brockman neither confirmed these specific reports nor provided a release date, stating only that consumers can "expect them soon." He also deflected questions regarding how Apple's ongoing lawsuit might impact the devices being developed with former Apple designer Jony Ive.
