It's good that he's doing these pretty deep videos on such shallow tech, the production quality is excellent, as is the presentation.

$200 is outrageous. I just got a Samsung Tab A9+ (a twelve incher) for $220 and its absolutely brilliant. It can do everything a phone can, on a huge vibrant screen, and i can download any and all AI apps ever developed for android (guaranteed more features than the R1 has), and i can play games on it, watch netflix, message friends, fly my drone with it as the display, and livestream. And if i want to use more sophisticated AI tools, i can run Parsec to remotely control my home desktop PC (and its local AI models, for image generation or text prompting). And yes, "large action models" can exist locally on your own pc with very very little Pyton knowlede (two hours of tutorials and you can set up your own environment with multiple AI agents collaborating to solve tasks). I can even, in this way, use my tablet to remotely edit videos in Davinci Resolve. Oh but i need an internet connection to do that? Yes, and the R1 needs a connection to the cloud as well.. Tell me again why i'd pay $200 for an R1 Rabbit? Because it fits in my pocket? My phone does.

Does that mean the Rabbit R1 can’t even cut it as a toy for kids? 😂

For kicks, I took a zoomed-in picture of the coffee arabica plant (which wasn't great, because it was a photo of an LED screen showing an image of an LED screen showing an image), and then used Google Lens. It CORRECTLY identified the plant in less time than the AI had to be wrong.

My guess is that that's their way to fund it. People are less accepting of an app being $200 rather than a physical device that they hold, and they don't wanna make it a subscription service or sell data(props on them for making it a one-time purchase). You also get the novelty of having a device just for a task.

I know many people who own Teenage Engineering products but none of them rely on said products as part of a creative workflow. They sit around and collect dust. Very expensive dust. I spent some time thinking about what kind of "AI in a box" product I would actually buy and use. It is really tough because there is very little creative functionality provided by AI which is not already provided by more competent and fleshed-out tools. Like, I could have a music AI generate a beat, or I could just open any of my free drum kit VSTs and have them generate beats from their library of handwritten MIDI. Chop it up, rearrange it, add/remove stuff, bam, original beat. So this is the best use case I've got: A translator or voice changer. Something like DeepL or elevenlabs in a box. That could be fun for pranks on friends. But of course even these tools are already readily accessible on both mobile and PC. So really, I got nothin'.

This device remained me to a Pokedex. Pokedex were able to see Pokemons and tell you everything about them and i believe it could answer some questions but that's all it did. It also had a small screen, a camera. Looked pretty similar to be honest. Maybe they got their inspiration from the Pokedex.

So, as a product designer, shortly after the presentation, I did a video on my channel analyzing the shape and usability. Everything looks great, but it's a product developed for right-handers.

The problem is the venture capitalists who invested millions into this before things like ChatGPT were mainstream. They realized that google and apple have way better AI assistants coming out this year which would make this piece of crap, and the humane AI pin completely obsolete, so it's a mad dash to get it to market to get as much as their original investment back as possible. The executives at Rabbit and Humane all know their products are dogshit, but can't say anything or they'll be sued. All of the engineers are probably under contract to finish the product as well so can't back out easily until it's launched. Thus you have a device that shouldn't exist, and everyone knows it sucks, but it gets launched anyways.

You keep being truthful and honest, and don't let a few fuzzy logic using trolls get in the way of your integrity.

I've given it some thought. Sometimes you get a solution looking for a problem. Other times you get a problem looking for a solution. If they stuck a tin opener on one side, it might gain some functionality...

Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1 feel like two varients of a gadget that existed 5-10 years before the first smartphone and later became obsolete when ios and android developed apps to do their thing. I can almost see them existing in that alternate history, in the past. Almost, because of the abysmal battery life. And since mobile phones spoiled us into always keeping devices on, I can imagine a daily user of one of these things using them back in the day. They'd just whip this thing out, switch it on, use it, and immediately switch it off after use. The switching on and off functions have to be quick like a digital camera or a laser measure. The fact that the infrastructure made to support mobile phones are what powering these things is really not helping my imagination.

It’s not half baked. It’s literally raw

Great review. No his fault it should be continuing development.

I think the video is great, the ONLY thing I would add in though is that with every product we release, it is getting that much more complex when we compare it to early new devices or software. As to say, we do tend to compare mature products to get a base line idea where we are. That in a way isnt very fair nor should we for say. With that said, both products don't really compare to the same functionaility of what other apps that allow AI (like GPT4) on your phone already, so its still fair in that respect. Going off what I saying though, the more complex our next generation has to be, the more likely we will hit stages of release going forward here vs relasing finish products anymore. It just cost too much time to sit on R/D tech and then hope someone doesnt get there first before you or release something not as half bake as your more sit on R/D stuff. Along with it really just takes time to mature a product anymore.
