one of the stories in "I, robot" is a telepath story, the robot can read minds and it can't hurt people, the can't hurt people is turned into that it can't hurt peoples feelings so it has to tell them what they want to hear. the llm is tuned by letting the user hear what they consider as the correct response. it just doesn't have the actions to go along with the answers and it doesn't have any real deduction skills.

Can you imagine a use case for a device where AI might be useful, but you DON"T want to bring an expensive smartphone? Can you imagine a use case for a device where it's very design makes it far more useful to people on the go? People who don't want to stop and doom scroll a phone for 5 minutes every time there's a notification? Ever think that maybe most smartphone use.... isn't good/healthy? Everything about smartphones is about assisting you through life. All features, all aspects, designed to be 'assistants.' AI is new, needs to continue to iterate to be where we can reliable use it instead of the current trend of smartphones. Legit use cases for Rabbit R1 1. Going out for a run/exercise/physical activity. 2. Construction/engineering site. 3. Maintain tabs on children when they are out in the community. 4. school settings, learning aid. Notice how none of these are 'I need a smartphone' reasons to have one? Maybe... you don't always need a smartphone as a tool, but maybe there are ways to provide AI powered tools to people who don't want to use a smartphone.

Rabbit could, but humane could not as its main objective is to be something to give people some phone functionality but without being a phone/having all those addictive screen elements. Saying this just be an app ignores the whole point of the pin. They both suck and aren't good enough to do what they're trying to do tho. Apparently meta glasses are doing it a bit better for that purpose. I think the 'wrong' people are reviewing the humane ai -- tech lovers are not really the target audience of something to get away from a particular type of tech. But having the target audience review it would still be bad reviews since it sucks. But likely would be less comments like this if people who actually want this type of thing.

I gotta say, Quinn hit all the nails for the AI assistant in your pocket/hands quite accurately. I mean other tech reviews were bland and not as deeply analyzed for the product use case beyond what the manufacturer has shown, the competitor product/ technology and how they stack up against them (Esp Phones & laptops) . I always thought Smart watches from the likes of Apple and Google were the perfect competitor for these products given their intent to use, but the sheer lack of technology/software to enable these use cases was the lacking factor for them. If these big tech companies integrate these tech products within their mobile ecosystem (phone+watch+earbuds). This will be the true evolution of AI and smart digital assistants integrating with your pocketable, powerful devices with the capability of ambient computing.

I must say I'm pretty impressed by Gemini. I did a small whiskey tasting at some point. And just out of interest I snapped a pic of the 3 bottles I had lined up. I asked for tasting notes of each bottle and finally asked it what the drinking order should be. It pretty much confirmed what my reasoning was and was able to give more information as well. Of course it's still something you should fact check. But the fact that it got the correct whiskeys out of that image and was able to give a comprehensive tasting notes list and drinking order is insane to me. Really looking forward to the next chapter
- There is a place for something in the form factor of a presentation clicker or iPod shuffle - just a camera and a microphone but it offloads processing to your phone or computer and plays back through your earbuds. - The pin's end game vision is of an always on aid, but the energy usage just isn't low enough yet. - Everyone is angsty for the next major evolution in human-computer interfacing that changes what our product environment looks like - it's neurolink (embeds) not wearables.

take the straps off your apple or android watch and there you go thats your clicker. the pins marketing was already an always on aid that would make your meeting notes for you. that's what naive hype marketing people believed after seeing their trailer, when told it doesn't have battery to do that they would say thats why it has the hot swap batteries and when told that's not enough they would ponder and say that the company wouldn't lie. at which point it had to be just pointed out to that yes they would mislead you, why wouldn't they - this is a true encounter, not just an example. and the company probably got funding by lying as well and managed to find funding who didn't stop to ask why is it a device this technology is a billion dollar market if it works magically like that just as a software.

The Rabbit R1 does have hardware features that would make a lot more sense on a playdate 2, like a backlit/color/touch screen, a more sleek rotary input than the crank (my biggest complaint about the playdate, actually), etc. I think a playdate 2 that took some of the R1's decent hardware/design features (even if they suck in the context of a smartphone replacement like this wants to be) would be a great followup to the original. The R1 seems like a waste of what is, to my eyes at least, a cute and sleek little design. Throw in a built-in solution for doing basic media playback, a la mp3/media players of the 00's, and you have an extremely cute and desirable boutique handheld.

Great analysis. I got a bit impulsive several weeks ago and had ordered the R1 the first time I saw it presented. By now I have seen a number of devastating reviews like this one, and managed to cancel the still pending order for full refund. I agree that smartphones will continue to be the #1 device type, and any and all wearables need to be able to connect to it or they're toast because enforced internet roundtrips for answers will never be fast and reliable enough to provide a satisfactory experience. The short battery life was the final nail in the coffin - babysitting those devices several times a day is ridiculous.

I 100% agree. Something Apple would never do but Google could pull off would be to release an SDK so that a 3rd party AI device could work like it was made by the manufacturer. If the AI pin could send/receive messages/calls from the same number as your phone, then you could decide to temporarily use one of these devices when you want to disconnect from your full phone (while still having access to some of the core functionality of a phone), but you wouldn’t have to tell all your friends/family “use this number to reach me for the next few hours.”

Xphone that integrates Grok uncensored AI with security at the heart of its operations is the future winner.
The number of phone calls I’ve scrambled to cancel because of wrong triggers makes this just too unfinished…
Careful, the AI bros will come after you too! But I'm also glad to see another reviewer not give into the hype train that is AI whatevers
I agree and I'm really surprised these things got so much press and funding. Like even the basic idea of it just sounded stupid to me the moment they announced it - especially the Rabbit R1. Imo the AI pin could be cool if the battery would last whole day and it had sub second response time - but it doesn't and is extremely overpriced
I still have a problem calling this AI. Nothing in this is AI. There are all Large Language Models. Nothing more. Nothing smart. Just producing nicer sounding stuff than before.
"Además la función de traducción funciona muy bien" Yup. As a native Spanish-speaking guy, that was perfecto. I loved your review because it's dead-on about the wearables. That's definitely coming to the Apple Watch and every Wear OS watch (hopefully because Google is still Google)
I for one really want new mobile computing form factors that these new devices explore. We've reached the limits of the rectangular piece of glass. The rabbit R1 was interesting to me as it focused on a new interaction and it's limited features and clunky-er UI actually makes it nice for people who want to prevent doom scrolling lol. Either way the emergence of new novel tech and form factors is great for us tech nerds.
Google already has on device generative AI, Gemini Nano available now on Google Pixel devices. I have it on my Pixel 8 Pro
Cinco phone vibes with that red spot!
I'll wait until someone creates Box from Star Cops. But much, much smaller.
Vid on unifi VLANs for IOT/smart home separation? Or not gonna happen anymore
I want to know how far you can throw them both out the window and which gets more air time......
ive watched a lot of coverage of these things and i literally still have no idea what the fuck the intended use case of them is
fuck awaiting pre order ... does rabbit have a return policy?
My question is why not just release a hardware optimized for on device processing AI as a Android phone? Basically just partner with teenage engineering and a smartphone maker and that sorts out everything but software. If the criticism is about a 3rd party app not having enough permissions, then with a smartphone maker for a partner you should be able to design the Android OS around the AI app and it's features. Considering how mature android is to develop for these days, I can't imagine this being too hard. Also if they have specialized hardware in their devices, trying to extract the app isn't going to go very well with regards to performance on other devices.
11:08 “In theory” invoked Siri on my iPad!
Watching this on my phone with 96% battery left and used Siri to change volume and pause KZread. Lol. Finally using siriz
THANK YOU Quinn!!! These devices are just trying to do what Apple Watch, and heck even Android watches will do but do better very soon. This video got me super excited for WWDC because I feel like we're gonna be blown away with how Siri will all do these stuff the AI devices are trying to do, but we already own it!
But.. how do you like the Audeze headphones 👀
