Apple's former chief design officer Jony Ive is teaming up with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on a new AI hardware project, according to a recent New York Times profile. The venture is being funded by Ive and Emerson Collective, Laurene Powell Jobs’ company, and could raise $1 billion in funding by the end of the year.
Jony Ive has confirmed that he’s working with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on an AI hardware project. The confirmation came today as part of a profile of Ive in The New York Times, nearly a year after the possibility of a collaboration between Altman and the longtime Apple designer was first reported on. There aren’t a lot of details on the project.
The project only has 10 employees currently, but they include Tang Tan and Evans Hankey, two key people who worked with Ive on the iPhone. LoveFrom, Ive’s company, is leading the device’s design, according to the report. The team is reportedly now working out of a 32,000-square-foot office building in San Francisco, part of a $90 million strip of real estate that Ive has bought up on single city block.
