Rumors emerged last year of a collaboration between former Apple designer Jony Ive and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, but the two have until now kept quiet about it. In a profile by The New York Times<\/ins><\/em><\/span> that was published this weekend, though, Ive confirms his company LoveFrom is leading the design on an AI product being built with Altman. Also on board are Tang Tan and Evans Hankey, both of whom held big design roles at Apple.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s so far a team of about 10 employees involved with the project, based in a San Francisco office building that\u2019s one of several properties Ive has purchased on a single city block, according to the Times<\/em>. But we still don\u2019t know much about the product they\u2019re working on. The report describes Tan and Hankey wheeling chairs between the LoveFrom properties that were \u201ctopped by papers and cardboard boxes with the earliest ideas for a product that uses A.I. to create a computing experience that is less socially disruptive than the iPhone.\u201d<\/p>\n

While an AI product seems to be on the horizon, there\u2019s currently no timeline for when it\u2019ll make its debut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
