A court filing in a trademark lawsuit reveals OpenAI won't use the name "io" for its AI hardware device, which isn't expected to ship until 2027.

The motion is part of a trademark infringement lawsuit filed last year by audio device startup iyO, which sued OpenAI after it acquired famed Apple designer Jony Ive's startup io.
