Jony Ive could return to the world of technology with the help of the creators of Chat GPT!
After leaving his position as Apple’s design director, Jony Ive has dedicated himself to his personal project LoveFrom, where he has created for important organizations and foundations, which are not related to the world of technology. Although returning to this area was a matter of time. As has been revealed, Ive would be working with OpenAI, the developer of Chat GPT to launch a device.
The report published by The Informationstates that Ive is discussing the creation of “AI hardware” with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
I’ve returned to the tech world
At the moment Specific details such as what the purpose of this device will be or what it will look like are unknown. and it is only known that this one will work “for the AI era.”
But the idea alone has already convinced important investors such as SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, who apparently would be involved in the conversations between Jony Ive and Altman. The report notes that OpenAI has already raised $11 billion from high-profile investors including Khosla Ventures and even Mictosoft.
Ive after Apple
After leaving Apple, Ive’s work has been linked to proposals for Airbnb, Ferrari. This year, he designed a red clown nose as a solidarity initiative in the United Kingdom and months later he was in charge of creating the emblem for the coronation of King Charles III.
But his years at Apple and his contribution to achieving the perfect fusion between software and design that represents the company, still continues to generate recognition. In April 2023, Sir Jonathan Ive received the Edison Achievement Award for a long career dedicated to design. In his acceptance speech, the man in charge of Apple’s most iconic designs, he had words for many collaborators in his career and of course for his friend and colleague, Steve Jobs.
The reasons for Jony Ive’s departure from Apple have always been the subject of speculation, but what has become clear is that none of them definitively distanced him from the world of technology. And alone We hope his return is as impactful as his years in charge of devices with the bitten apple logo were.
