With the rise of ChatGPT and large language models (LLMs), AI-dedicated devices have started coming out. The Humane AI pin was widely lambasted earlier this month when it launched, and now the Rabbit r1 AI assistant is out. With rumors that Apple is delving into AI in a big way, we thought we'd check out the Rabbit r1 to see what it can do and how it measures up to an iPhone.

Still a better review than some other tech bros, who I would say sound like a 12-year-old was handed an 80's computer and no software... except those 12-year-olds actually DID figure it out. At the time. 20-year-old today adn I'm not sure they would consider reading the manual. Or mistake it for the EULA, the kind you'd get with a new Windows computer 15 years ago when I last did get one 📚 with all the reinstall CDs and junk.

I have my box right in front of me: the box and the foam insert (it's not "plastic," by the way). There is no QR code to scan that takes you to a user guide. Was it on the plastic wrap? They really should put it on a glossy single-page insert, not put it on the damn packaging that you're going to tear with a boxcutter and quickly toss into the trash out of habit.

The Rabbit doesn't make sense as an app. The intent: allowing immediate requests and fast responses. Not...unlock phone, find (another) app in sea of apps, load app, ask question, get response. If i was going to unlock and search I would have opened Safari, Chrome or ChatGPT and I'd put money on this being faster. IF Apple allowed for 3rd party alternatives to Siri when holding the power button then I would 100% agree with this being an app. Until then, I support separate hardware hope they become the 3rd player in the smart "device/phone" OS race. For Android, sure, maybe a launcher.

​@@adriancp9957 I said, "fast responses", not immediate responses. This isn't meant to launch apps. Example: "Tell me the weather in Seattle, play Dominc Fike, order an uber and text Mom, I'm on my way." Rabbit R1 can do that because it isn't operating on an app by app basis. Your phone does those 4 things separately because they are all developed by different individuals. Though, Android could probably do it but Apple doesn't allow control of apps by 3rd parties. You're not looking far enough into the future my guy...or gal...dog?

But App infrastructure aleady makes it dystopic with apps going offline or losing support for OLD PHONES due to security updates, the geeks don't have time to man the engines. The level of argument here is like excpecting schools to have a private tutor for every kid to flip your text book pages.

So anybody. Because everybody has their abilities disabled when they're forced to follow Steve Jobs down his eight layers of fawning over Dieter Rams. I don't hate complication but smartphone doesn't even have decent options for portable typing. I'll be using this first as a replacement for command line, and guess what I already do with my best keyboards? Connect them to several computers. Can't do that with "just install it as software on your proprietary device, bro". My aspiration (if it can come to that, R1 could still suck) is connect it to a portable local network and do commands through that. It's a pretty naive WAtch_Dogs kind of fantasy. But I was also trying to create Vtubers in 2012 and the vision just wasn't there and I failed. Japanese competition stuck through it with gdgd Fairies and Naria girls, and now it's the second biggest streaming industry in existence, pushing awards to names like Ironmouse and IDF.

Then I saw all the KZfaq comments about how this would be a cool gift for kids and the elderly, and I ordered another for my dad - he recently retired and gets so excited about trying all kinds of AI stuff, because his son works with AI.

All products start somewhere, but sometimes they also end in the same place. In the AI arms race to "AI all the things" it seems products like this and the Humane AI Pin are a product in search of a solution. I believe the future is more likely to be us wearing super small, long-lasting earbuds and interacting with a smart AI assistant connected to a phone-like device (maybe it's a wrist band?). But the notion of having a separate device, with its own SIM card and phone number, plus a monthly fee, just isn't compelling unless it delivers HUGE value over what people already get from their existing devices. And I'm not seeing that here or in the near future.

I also don't see the point of these devices. It's not new hardware that is not already in the smartphones we already own and carry everywhere, so I see no reason why these are not apps. And last, the most useful device is the one you always carry, and since it's always going to be your phone first, there's no point in buying and carrying a second device if it doesn't do anything much better than what your phone can already do, such as high-end cameras for professional users, etc. The only people this could interest are the owners of non-smart flip-phones but they're exactly the market that won't buy such a device in the first place.

The appeal here is that it is not your phone. Your phone can do 800 things, with enough swipes and taps; this is the just the AI experience with a new fun form factor (thank God). I can spread mayonnaise on a slice of bread with my phone, too - but I'd rather just use a knife.

Apple’s WWDC will provide a mature, well considered and executed, platform approach to AI using the devices everyone already owns. This device is interesting, but not compelling. Poor UI, small screen, janky keyboard, inconsistent UX, minimal support… it’s a good concept, but really an MVP at this point. They will have to iterate quickly to remain relevant.

Rabbit is yet another product without a purpose. Based on the demo, this seems like version 0.75, not version 1.0. I was really struck when Siri did something better than the Rabbit. Wow, bested by Siri. So sad.

I think this is another piece of tech that could of been an app, certainly not worth $199 and is yet another fad that will quickly be replaced by an app that can do all of the functionality. With the hope that AI that is coming to Apple at WWDC could enable Siri to do most of the functionality that this device can do. I don't see that this is going to replace a iPhone or Android, why take two devices out with you when your phone pretty much can do what you need it to do.

If you need to say you’re being honest, or worse, have to state it in your title, that immediately signals that you know you have no credibility, only your honesty, and you don’t even have that, either. Nobody trusts the guy who says “trust me.”

We shouldn’t judge a book by its cover but I’m not about to watch everything posted on youtube just to give it a qualified, “no, thank you.” But seeing, “my HONEST review of blah blah blah,” is an immediate red flag. Why? Because that infers everything else you post is dishonest, unless stated otherwise. Oh, you say, people should know that’s an obvious slippery slope argument. Sure, but we must judge you on your words as we can’t read your mind or watch the video without watching. At least you’re giving everyone new to MacRumors a negative first impression.

I would just because I think it's a neat piece of tech that COULD pave the way for something greater in the future. These may suck now, but I think they are really cool pieces of tech for people who are really into the bleeding edge of tech, and could create a path for some AMAZING improvements to accessibility features for the blind and impaired. Also, they plan to have a "learn" feature soon, so you may be able to customize the thing to do what you'd like, which is the main reason why I wanna buy one tbh.

​@@elmin2323I agree but, to become better it almost NEEDS to be slow at first I think. Or, not fast enough yet. If it was perfect that would mean that this tech had hit a roadblock and would be shit, and I highly doubt this is the end of the road for these. I think these devices need to "walk" so to speak, so others can run with this idea.
