Nothing CEO Carl Pei Says First AI-Native Product Ships in December
Nothing CEO Carl Pei announced that the company's first AI-native product will launch in December, describing it as a screenless, non-app tool.
Carl Pei, CEO of smartphone startup Nothing, stated on X that the company's first "AI-native product" will ship in December. Pei described the device as a tool built with the personality and care characteristic of Nothing products, explicitly noting that it has no new screen and could not have been an app.
This statement confirms Nothing's development of a distinct AI hardware device. While the company had previously teased plans for AI-linked smart glasses and earbuds with AI integrations, Pei's latest post focuses on this unnamed upcoming product.
Pei also commented on the industry's search for an "iPhone moment" for AI, mentioning pendants, pins, and glasses, but indicated he reads this moment differently. No firm release date has been announced, leaving the specific form factor and capabilities still to be revealed.
