## Summary

Nothing chief executive Carl Pei says the company will launch its first AI device in December, more than a year after outlining plans for AI focused products and software. He has revealed little about the device, but says it will have no screen and could not have been made as an app.

A teaser image shows the Nothing name above a dark, rounded shape, without clarifying what the product does. Rumours have pointed to AI smart glasses, including a version without cameras, and to a broader move towards AI accessories. The device follows screen free products such as the Humane AI pin and Friend; Pei argues that searching for an “iPhone of AI” is a dead end.
