Multiple outlets report that OpenAI is offering a “ChatGPT basketball” for sale through its Supply Co. online shop. The product is part of a broader hardware and merchandise lineup that includes items such as ChatGPT-themed clothing and collectibles, along with other branded technology products referenced by the outlets. TechCrunch frames the basketball as a lesser-publicized release that accompanies OpenAI’s appearance of a first hardware offering during the same week. Mashable emphasizes that the shop lists the basketball among its available goods, alongside other ChatGPT-branded merchandise and products. Both sources describe the basketball as priced at $70 and presented as a physical, branded item tied to ChatGPT. Neither outlet provides details that suggest the basketball includes any embedded electronics or functional features beyond being a novelty product. The reporting focuses on the launch and sale of the item rather than technical specifications or licensing details.
