This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I would not buy one. I would not use one if my current phone exploded into tiny pieces and the only convenient replacement was a free OpenAI phone - I'd much rather inconvenience myself.
I didn't even know they made phones.
But they couldn't pay me enough to use one.
“No! We swear we can make money! Seee! Phone? Phone make money! We make phone! Please give us more money to throw in to the money shredder.”
This is like the Amazon firephone all over again..watch this space
The what?
Similar to the facebook phone.
I expect companies to be the ones actually buying these and forcing employees to use them at least once an hour as a requirement for staying employed.
Remember the Facebook phone? Exactly.
Remember the Rabbit R1?
They probably just asked ChatGPT, who said their idea was fantastic and would sell really well.
I wouldn't use an OpenAI phone if they paid me...
Everyone has a price. My price is many many times higher than whatever money they'd make back selling my data and advertising to me.
Would be real funny if they made a built in Ai with root access for it.. Totally not disastrous.
Roses are red
AI is slop
My homies can't wait
For this bubble to pop
My one coworker is an AI shill and I love reminding him that this is gonna be the dotcom bubble all over again. He was an adult when the dotcom bubble burst and apparently he had invested a lot into shit back then lmao. I was a kid so I didn't even know what an economy is.
You better have a nice, big "fell for it again"-award ready for him. He'll need it for emotional support.
I will get the most amazing award. On top of being an AI shill, he's also an incel and racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, and transphobic.
I know why his ex wife left him and why his daughters don't communicate with him.
My resident AI shill is otherwise the nicest and smartest person. Makes it so much harder to see him fall
Are you sure he isn't just Grok inside a humanoid shell?
Oh shit he might be. How can I know for certain? What can I do to test this theory?
Totally thought the last line was going to be:
"for this phone to flop"
Either way, good poem.
Strong digust triggering ideas presented by openai in here
AI companies have some of the worst projections ever conceived of by human minds. Im not remotely surprised they conned so many investors with them.
You are a ✨visionary✨ that sees things nobkxy else does! It's not going to be a failure, it's going to exceed all expectations! By the year ✨2030✨ everybody will own an OpenAI phone! 🎖️🎖️🎖️✨✨✨🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️

Talk about being delusional
OpenAI is going for a fully proprietary phone, creating both the hardware and the operating system. According to Kuo, it will use a customized version of MediaTek’s Dimensity 9600 processor, which is expected to launch in the third quarter of this year.
They must be slopping the OS together, while their marketing AI tells them that this is what everyone wants.
Seems more likely that they are trying to pump up their IPO using this phone.
Just like Musk with the charade of "it's coming" and as long as you keep excitement and act like it's a game changer, the idiot investors will keep throwing money at it, propping it up. They've gotta believe by now it's both unsustainable and a shitty product, but are just milking it dry for the sake of profits.
They are not talking to us, but to the shareholders and investors. They are offering a fantazillion phone sales to the people who are giving them money so they can get more money.
It's the exact same pattern we've been seeing with all things AI since its launch. This kind of big talk is aimed to please investors, even if it's a plain lie (which, with AI, has always been the case).
I genuinely cannot believe that they think this is a good idea. After their whole Sora thing failed, you would think they would have gotten wiser, guess that's not the case. I cannot see a world where this thing do anything, but flop. Maybe they will sell them at a lost, but, even then, I have doubt that it will succeed.
An official member of the US military industrial complex is making a phone with a proprietary OS that hoovers up your data and shoves AI slop in your face 24/7. What’s not to like?
They’ll write off the losses. They don’t care.
That's not how it works, Kramer.
Boy are they in for a rude awakening.
I hope they really go for it. Maybe it'll put them out of business.
AI is getting so intrusive I'm considering a land line.
