OpenAI做了个2000块的智能“甜甜圈”？Jony Ive操刀，或今年亮相明年开卖

TL;DR - Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports OpenAI's first consumer hardware product is a puck-sized, donut-shaped smart speaker designed with Jony Ive's LoveFrom, priced at $300–400, targeting a 2026 unveiling and 2027 sales. It signals model providers moving to own the physical user entry point rather than renting attention on phones.

• Screenless ring-shaped device with speaker grille, microphones, lights, camera and sensors, plus movable mechanical parts intended to give it "personality" and anthropomorphic responsiveness; battery-powered and portable around the home.
• Runs full ChatGPT capability for smart-home control, media, Q&A and messaging; conversational interaction builds on OpenAI's July "GPT-Live" voice mode supporting simultaneous listen-and-speak with fast response.
• Follows OpenAI's $6.5B acquisition of Ive's io Products; ex-Apple design lead Evans Hankey is involved. Roughly five products are in development, including a smartphone-replacement mobile AI device, pendant wearables, and home robotics interest.
• Apple's trade-secret lawsuit (including a metal surface-finishing process) and a pending preliminary injunction could delay launch; OpenAI has moved to dismiss and says its internal review found no infringement.
