OpenAI plans to market it as the first AI computer capable of helping users perform everyday tasks. Its distinctive design is also meant to stand out in the smart speaker market, which is currently dominated by Amazon and Google.

The company reportedly hopes the product will demonstrate that it is not simply copying Apple's hardware designs.

As Ukrinform previously reported, Apple has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and two former Apple employees, accusing the company of obtaining valuable internal information by hiring its former staff.
