OpenAI plans to launch 100 million OpenAI AI devices aimed at everyday use. CEO Sam Altman confirmed the project in a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal. These OpenAI hardware units are described as companion devices.
The design and function remain undisclosed. Altman is developing the project with Jony Ive, the former Apple designer.
Ive joined OpenAI following its $6.5 billion acquisition of his company, io.
Ive called the project a “new design movement,” but gave no further specifications. He referenced Apple’s hardware-software integration.
OpenAI has not released prototypes, specifications, or a launch date for the OpenAI AI devices.
ChatGPT Usage Drives OpenAI Valuation to $300 Billion
As of May 2025, OpenAI’s ChatGPT platform has nearly 800 million weekly active users. The data, shared by DemandSage, reflects rapid ChatGPT usage growth.
OpenAI’s market valuation rose from $157 billion in October 2024 to $300 billion by March 2025. The valuation increase reflects strong user activity on the ChatGPT platform and investor confidence.

The OpenAI social media project aims to compete with X and Meta. There is no launch timeline or official name available.

The project enables decentralized finance users to query on-chain data using simple language.
Validation Cloud Hedera integration is independent from OpenAI, but it reflects growing adoption of similar technologies.
OpenAI has not confirmed involvement in the Hedera blockchain or any related AI blockchain integration.
