Sounds to me like OpenAI is going to make it's own consumer device. Maybe designed by the AI itself. The AI Is choosing it's own body?

If you think current "AI" can design and build a consumer device, I have a lot of bridges that I'd like to sell you.

Future AI will deserve a say in the design of its own body, right? Maybe it's not smart enough now, but as it dawns into personhood it'll likely gain some legal rights, including perhaps over its own body. Anyhow, as the AI's gain personhood there will likely be human-led movements to give them more rights. It'll be seen as gauche or gross to do things to AI without consulting it.

This is very utopian.

You can’t casually say “AI’s gain personhood.” That is so far out in the future, that’s beyond AGI.
