In a profile by The New York Times that was published this weekend, Ive confirms his company LoveFrom is leading the design on an AI product being built with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
I feel like throwing up even seeing Ive's "the work behind this turd starts with a carefully engineered thread of digestion, and the smell and texture were carefully selected by thousands of experiments handled personally by our engineers, it's a miraculous creation, and in its own way it's unique" face.
It seemed cool because everything was beige or white or black and square. "Boring" industrial design (that I liked, but those Apple stuff pictures I liked too, though not as much as chromecore GBA and PS2, remember when everything was chromecore?) and this bubbly-transparent-plastic-luminous thing.
I don't think I'd like it really using it though. And it is tasteless, like everything Ive designed.
