The device will be positioned as an artificial intelligence-first computer that can help users get things done, people familiar with the matter said.
OpenAI is developing a new device that is expected to be hockey puck-sized and cost over $300. According to 9to5Mac and The Verge, the device will be shaped like a doughnut and have a "premium look" with upscale materials like high-quality metal.
The device is described as a smart speaker without a display, battery-powered, and equipped with a camera system, sensors, and mechanical elements that can move on their own. As per The Verge, it will have moving parts, lights, and will be easy to carry around the home.
The device is expected to launch in 2027, although 9to5Mac notes that the timeline could change due to an ongoing lawsuit between Apple and OpenAI. Bloomberg, cited by multiple outlets, reports that OpenAI has discussed pricing the device between $300 and $400 per unit.
