"For the last year, OpenAI executives and former Apple leaders now working at io have vigorously researched in-ear hardware devices, according to filings submitted in iyO's lawsuit."
"Tang Tan, a longtime Apple executive that co-founded io and serves as the startup's chief hardware officer, claims in a declaration to the court that the prototype OpenAI CEO Sam Altman mentioned in io's launch video "is not an in-ear device, nor a wearable device.""
OpenAI and Jony Ive's io are developing a new mass-market AI hardware device but face a trademark lawsuit from iyO, a competing startup. This lawsuit has led OpenAI to pull promotional materials related to their collaboration with io. Recent filings reveal that OpenAI has researched in-ear hardware by purchasing multiple headphone sets. The nature of their first device remains unclear, with reports suggesting it may not even be headphones. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, indicated a family of devices is in the works, highlighting the ongoing innovation despite legal hurdles.
