Sam Altman praised Apple's Vision Pro on Thursday, calling the new spatial computer the "second most impressive" technology since the iPhone arrived in 2007.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Ranks Vision Pro Behind AI in Tech Innovations Post-iPhone Era
The OpenAI CEO made the statements in a post on X on Friday, just days after the Vision Pro was officially released for $3,500 each.
The mixed-reality headgear enables users to interact with digital media that is blended into the physical world. Users may control the device's app with their eyes and fingertips.
According to Business Insider reporter Jordan Hart, the device can create a new normal—just as Apple's iPhone did more than 15 years ago.
However, despite the revolutionary nature of the new technology, Altman believes the Vision Pro is simply the "second most impressive" item to emerge in the last 17 years.
He didn't say what he thought was the most astounding technology, but it's safe to believe he was referring to artificial intelligence, namely OpenAI's ChatGPT, which debuted in November 2022.
Altman has previously stated that AI is on track to impact the world in ways unprecedented since the iPhone placed a computer in people's pockets.
OpenAI's Sam Altman Eyes ChatGPT Evolution, Critiques Its Widely Known Moniker
ChatGPT is already having an extraordinary impact on industry and daily life. Altman reportedly told engineers that he intends to transform ChatGPT into a "supersmart personal assistant" for work.
Even while Altman likes ChatGPT, he is not particularly fond of its moniker. In reaction to his Friday X post, another member claimed Vision Pro had a horrible reputation.
"Chatgpt is a lot worse," Altman responded. This is not the first time Altman has criticized OpenAI's now-famous name. "It's a horrible name, but it may be too ubiquitous to ever change," Altman told Trevor Noah on the comedian's podcast "What Now? with Trevor Noah" in December.
