SMRTR summary

OpenAI plans to launch its first physical device in the second half of 2026, according to a senior executive at the World Economic Forum. The palm-sized, screenless personal assistant is being designed by former Apple design chief Jony Ive and aims to function as an "AI companion" that sits on desks or travels in pockets, answering questions naturally without replacing smartphones. The company remains on track for the launch as it focuses on practical AI adoption across health, science, and enterprise sectors.
