OpenAI is preparing to launch a smart personal device that relies on voice instead of screens.

Washington, DC – OpenAI, an American artificial intelligence (AI) company, is preparing to launch a smart personal device that relies entirely on voice instead of traditional screens. This comes as part of its efforts to redefine how we interact with technology.

The company explained that it has merged several internal teams, including engineering, product, and research, with the goal of developing an advanced, next-generation voice model. It noted that its engineering teams have collaborated over the past two months to redesign its voice models in preparation for launching a fully voice-based smart device in about a year.

OpenAI’s new model includes a variety of devices, such as smart glasses or screenless speakers. These devices aim to reduce the need for multiple screens, which consume time and attention. The company wants to focus on higher-quality, more interactive sound.

With this device, OpenAI seeks to transition from being merely a software provider to a consumer electronics company. It aims to integrate artificial intelligence into users’ daily lives through voice, enabling them to accomplish tasks and communicate without needing to look at a phone screen.
