OpenAI CEO Praises Apple Vision Pro as “Second Most Impressive Tech” Since iPhone
Introduction
In a recent tweet, Sam Altman, CEO and co-founder of OpenAI, expressed his admiration for Apple’s new technology, stating that the Apple Vision Pro is the “second most impressive tech since the iPhone” (source: Altman’s tweet).
Altman’s Impression
Altman’s tweet not only praises the Apple Vision Pro but also suggests that OpenAI’s own ChatGPT technology ranks as the top “most impressive” new tech since the iPhone’s launch in 2007 (source: Altman’s tweet).
Vision Pro vs. Spatial Computing Headset
Altman also responded to a user’s criticism of Apple’s spatial computing headset, stating that it had a “probably the worst name.” Interestingly, Altman also indirectly expressed a similar critique of his own product during the conversation (source: Altman’s tweet).
OpenAI’s VisionOS Version of ChatGPT
Considering Altman’s positive impressions of the Apple Vision Pro, it is not surprising that OpenAI has already launched a VisionOS version of their ChatGPT app, which complements Apple’s new technology (source: VentureBeat).
Apple Vision Pro’s Market Performance
The Apple Vision Pro, with a price tag of $3,500 upfront (or $291.58 per month for a year), is a high-priced tech device in the mass market. However, it has seemingly begun on a strong note, with third-party estimates indicating sales of over 200,000 units since its U.S. release last month (source: MacRumors).
Conclusion
While the Apple Vision Pro has garnered praise from industry experts like Sam Altman, its market performance and adaptation will be closely monitored by technology enthusiasts. The convergence of AI and groundbreaking hardware is always a significant development for the industry and consumers alike.
