SpaceX developing AI hardware product that’s ‘slimmer than an iPhone,’ reports WSJ

SMRTR summary

Slimmer than an iPhone and shrouded in secrecy, a new AI hardware prototype is quietly making the rounds among investors. SpaceX, fresh off becoming a publicly traded company, has been showing off the sleek device ahead of its massive IPO.

The gadget runs on a proprietary operating system and uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. It would tap into SpaceXAI technology, the AI division that now includes the Grok chatbot and coding platform Cursor, all folded into SpaceX's rapidly expanding empire.

Whether the device ever reaches consumers is still an open question.

SpaceX isn't alone in the race. Apple is developing AI wearables, and OpenAI is building dedicated AI hardware with legendary designer Jony Ive at the helm.

The AI hardware wars are heating up, and Elon Musk, never one to sit out a tech moment, appears to be placing his bets early.
