According to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, Apple’s designer exodus continues with the announcement that product design leader Tang Tan is leaving the business to join Jony Ive’s design firm LoveFrom. These comments were made public. It has been claimed that he would be working on a new artificial intelligence hardware project there, which will be supported by Sam Altman of OpenAI. The project’s objective is to develop gadgets that utilize the most recent deep learning technologies.

Because Tan was in charge of design for Apple’s most important products, such as the iPhone, Watch, and AirPods, his departure created a significant void in the company’s design department. Tan will take on the role of hardware design lead for the new artificial intelligence project as part of LoveFrom, while Altman will be responsible for delivering the software that will be operating below. All of the goods are presumed to be in the first stages of idea development, with a particular emphasis on household appliances. The news has not been remarked on by any of the companies involved, including OpenAI, LoveFrom, or Apple.

Even though it was already common knowledge that Tan would most certainly be departing Apple, the destination of his departure had not yet been disclosed. Evans Hankey, who had successfully succeeded Jony Ive as the chief of product design, resigned from his position earlier this year after just a few short years in the position. A total of around fourteen members of Ive’s old crew have departed Apple since the year 2019, with just about a half dozen of them still working there. I have been working as a consultant for Apple until the year 2022, and more than twenty former workers of Apple have joined Ive within the LoveFrom platform.

In part, Altman was able to raise financing for other efforts, which led to his termination from OpenAI, which was followed by his subsequent rehire. According to a recent article from Bloomberg, one of these was the collaboration with Ive to develop artificial intelligence hardware that was supported by Softbank.
