Comment on Forget Apple Vision Pro – rabbit r1 is 2024's most exciting launch yet

I mean, I’m equally uninterested in either of them. That said, the Rabbit is closer to something I could envision being successful. (Except that I hate voice UIs; even if they understand the words I say and what I mean, I don’t want to have to talk to something or listen to a response to get anything done.) But their interaction model is so slow and gives so little actual feedback, I can’t imagine anyone really using it, and even for what little it does, it has to be crazy expensive to operate.

I think passive AI assistants that watch our lives, take notes, manage schedules, remember things, etc, is probably where “real” AI could be the most beneficial for personal technology, but it’s also clear that current LLMs are just not up to the task for that sort of work, which requires multimodal input, huge amounts of context, actual data storage and retrieval, and no hallucinating.
