Welcome back, Cubs 🐻. The year is already opening with ambitious robot energy. A humanoid robot is now rallying with humans on the tennis court, and a new startup called Pickle just launched a wearable it calls the “soul computer.”

Today: OpenAI is building an AI-powered device, and you can download the ultimate Mama Bear prompts guide, plus the top 10 AI tools I actually tested and kept.

AI 2026
OpenAI Is Betting on Voice, Not Screens

OpenAI is shifting hard into audio-first AI as screens feel tired and cluttered. The company combined teams to overhaul its audio models ahead of a new audio-first personal device expected in early 2026.

The goal is natural-sounding, conversational AI that can handle interruptions and speak while you talk, not just spoken commands. This aligns with a broader tech shift where voice interfaces are gaining ground across devices and categories, from smart speakers to glasses.

If successful, the future could lean more on listening and talking than typing and tapping.
