Can move on it's own?! Just what I always wanted! An obnoxious speaker creature that follows me around, "learns" about me, and never shuts the fuck up.

These guys have their fingers on the pulse.

They built a literal DJroomba. Parks and rec writers > OpenAI.

If your AI needs a »personality« to keep you engaged, you’re no longer just buying hardware. You’re buying a relationship designed by a corporation. The biggest risk isn’t smarter AI. It’s outsourcing companionship, habits, and decisions to a product that ultimately serves its maker.

Bloomberg reported Tuesday that the device — which is still currently under development — is designed to be screen-free and is being pitched internally as a “humanlike AI companion that lives in the home.”

OpenAI has long claimed that it wants to launch a hardware product — with some rumors being that it wants to launch its own phone, a move that would put it in competition with Apple.

The machine would have access to a user’s digital life, drawing off things like emails, sources said.

The device is also weirdly described as involving “mechanical elements that can move on their own” and the Bloomberg report includes the detail that the device is designed to “feel like a companion and become a physical manifestation of OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
