From the web rentry have warned that some of the Rabbit R1 demos could be altered and be suspected of being manipulated to achieve a better result.

Fortunately, both Jesse Lyu himself and the same community through Discord and Twitter (X) have come out to show the evidence that They contradicted the version that it was a scam. But, let us start at the beginning.

We already know the Rabbit R1 very well and every so often - although less often than I would like - the brand's Staff and especially the creator they upload demo videos of the progress that they have or simply proof.

Recently we saw in this article how were they showing both the Rabbit Hole, which will be the website where you can have all the information, as well as the transcription and summary capabilities compared to an audio recording.

WHY DO THEY SAY THAT THE RABBIT R1 DEMOS ARE FAKE?

In principle they have 2 arguments to attack him. It seems that they have seen inconsistencies in some of the videos that Jesse has uploaded to Discord.

First accusation: Errors in the R1 messages shown.

In the first video that talks about the transcription, a message appears that says:

«your session was saved to the reabbithole«

This was the first clue that raised suspicions among the most attentive viewers, and it is a seemingly harmless typo in the user interface. We see how it clearly states REABBITHOLE, which was surprising, since both Jesse and his team are very methodical in design.

Argument in defense of the first accusation:

On the same day as the video's release, Lyu released this TWEET.

According to Rabbit, include certain spelling mistakes on purpose, since that way they can know if there have been internal leaks by the team itself. It seems that it is something common that they do to protect their interests and they say so themselves.

Second accusation: The audio and the recording do not match.

The second sign that they show us was presented in the form of a discrepancy between audio recorded live by the CEO using his R1 device and audio playing from the web portal, the Rabbit Hole. It seems that if we pay attention, it is evident that the audio that was played through the web portal did not coincide with the live recording made by Jesse.

The inconsistency of the audio suggested to them that the audio on the web portal was pre-recorded or manipulated, raising even more suspicions about the authenticity of the demo.

Argument in defense of the second accusation:

I don't know what was the reason for that unconsciousness that they mention., and it was difficult for me to find it, but whatever the case, someone on Twitter dropped the CEO who had also observed it. He immediately recorded a new demo.

In fact We have been able to see some other Rabbit demos showing recording or translations and all of them seemed to be quite faithful to what I promised from the beginning, so at least on my part there is no doubt.

Anyway tomorrow Jesse Luy will go to the MKBHD studio to chat with Marques Brownlee and I imagine we'll see some new demos of the Rabbit R1 in action. I imagine it and I fervently wish it, by the way...

For my part I have no doubt: All the Rabbit R1 demos are good. I've been watching them since the beginning and although I may be wrong, I'm not going to give up waiting for the device.
