OpenAIthe company behind the popular chatbot ChatGPT, is negotiating the addition of Apple’s former design chief Jony Ive to help the company create the “iPhone of artificial intelligence.” In accordance with ‘The Information‘, a medium that advances the news, Ive has already held meetings with Sam Altman, head of OpenAI, in which it has been discussed what the first physical device created with the company could be.
To carry out the project, the company has financing of $1 billion provided by Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son. The goal of this device would be to revolutionize consumer technology just as it did Apple in 2007, when Steve Jobs showed the world the first iPhone. It would not necessarily be a mobile phone, but rather a tool that would allow the user to use tools powered by artificial intelligence in the most comfortable and natural way possible.
Jony Ive was responsible for shaping some of Apple’s most important devices. Among them, in addition to the iPhone, the iPad or the iPod. Even the headquarters of the apple company, Apple Park, bears his signature. He left the company in the summer of 2019 after three decades dedicated to the brand. He continued to collaborate with her until 2022, when his external worker contract expired.
Ive also has his own design company: LoveFrom. In addition to making designs for companies of all kinds (from Airbus to Ferrari), he was in charge of creating the logo for the coronation of Charles III of England. Now, OpenAI could add to its client list. Although, at the moment, it is not clear that this will happen. According to ‘The Information’, talks between the parties are serious, but a collaboration agreement has not yet been closed. As we have said, it is not even clear what the format of the device would be.
