Muse and Instinct both failed at finding an iPhone Duo. But rabbitOS 3 succeeded. Many such cases, IYKYK.

there's a lot things that personal agents claims. but how well do they accomplish? to put @rabbit_hmi OS3 on a real world test, i gave it a near impossible challenge - can it help me get a same day pick up iPhone Duo without preordering it? the prompt: "i missed the iPhone Duo preorder, help me find a white 1TB that's available to pick up today."

The "AI-native/AI-first" consumer tech hardware category is very obviously emerging, and I would argue that @rabbit_hmi is literally the only meaningful player in it right now. The criteria, IMO, is that your device has to have been primarily designed for using AI, which rules out the Meta Glasses. Muse Charm isn't out yet. And I think the other meaningful criteria is that it can't be a single purpose device, which rules out the swathe of AI audio transcribers like Plaud. The shadow of OpenAI/Ive looms large, but it's been almost 3 years since people started talking about that and we still don't really know anything about it, and haven't heard very much in some time. Humane and Limitless are gone. Friend exists, but as far as I can tell, they've sold around 5k units compared to our 100k plus. Everything is on the table and there's all to play for, and we're hard at work on our next form factor.

there are only two ways to interact with agents that feel right. 1. voice 2. actual physical keyboard, pref mechanical smartphones (at least most of them) are poorly optimised for both.

Rabbit R1、dot端末としてローラーマウスとKinesis Advantage360の隙間が常駐場所になってる。仕事の合間に、私の薬の所在調査、アラビア語の挨拶練習したり、あの国の営業時間終わるまであと1時間切ったら一旦声かけて、みたいな雑多なことやってくれてる。 #RabbitR1

OS3 users have consumed hundreds of billions of tokens in 2 weeks since launch. here's a new week to ship! this week we will address: 1. the friction of none BYOK users to provide a much smoother and simpler onboarding process. 2. agent performance optimization regarding speed and token consumption. 3. faster DLAM computer control. we'll do a side by side comparison, OS3 vs. everything else on market.

we are working on the exact ideas you mentioned. hopefully will be ready within this month, with OS3 to build any apps to be natively rendered and runs 60FPS on r1 with OS3, which is a much needed upgrade to the existing creations feature on r1.

I was thinking of buying a teenage engineering sampler as I love their stuff then I remembered I have a rabbit r1 I'm thinking of installing llama.cpp on it but also doing s2s apps tbf initially I wasn't as interested but now they offer you to vibe code apps, use community creations on device or jailbreak which to me is very cool probably need to upgrade the os first disclaimer: this was sent to me for free but it's not a paid ad or whatever, I do not do paid ads and never did

people want to know why @monzo accelerated so quickly in the early years? i will tell you why. i remember @t_blom telling product teams over and over again to not be too risk-averse. i think that our culture in the UK needs to re-balance risk vs reward ratio. we just don't have enough moonshots.
