TL;DR

SpaceX has developed a prototype handheld device designed to transform human interaction with AI, and recently showcased it to investors and other stakeholders ahead of its anticipated IPO, the Wall Street Journal reports. The device features a sleek design and is reportedly slimmer than an iPhone.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday evening that Elon Musk's SpaceX has developed a prototype handheld device for AI interaction, slimmer than an iPhone. The company recently demonstrated the device to investors and stakeholders as it prepares for its initial public offering — a listing that The Zioneer reported on June 12 valued the aerospace giant at $1.77 trillion on the Nasdaq. The report, attributed to unnamed sources familiar with the matter, did not disclose a timeline for commercial launch or additional technical specifications. SpaceX has not issued an official statement. The device signals Musk's push beyond rockets and satellites into consumer AI hardware, following his $60 billion merger proposal between SpaceX and xAI, which The Zioneer reported Monday. The prototype remains in an early stage; no production commitments have been announced.
