First news about the Rabbit r1 Teach Mode arrives<\/a><\/h4><\/header><\/div>

Neither an app for iPhone nor for Android. I want the Rabbit r1 as it is (at least for now)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Go ahead, I'm not any fanboy<\/em> that It's going to justify everything bad that the R1 has<\/strong> \u2014which are many things\u2014 and I want and almost demand that it improve over time and that they fix the bugs it currently has.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want the options you have today to work correctly. That I can order an UBER with the Rabbit r1<\/a><\/strong> without taking out my phone or being able to generate images in Midjourney. I want you to answer what I'm asking and tell me what you see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I want all of that to be done well. Make sure it runs smoothly, doesn't cause errors and responds as quickly as possible. That has to be a must<\/em> and It has nothing to do with the controversy<\/strong> whether or not it should be a smartphone application<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here I leave my opinion on why I don't think it is a good idea to turn this project into an app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The obvious: It's a business decision<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rabbit Inc. is a company<\/a>, and as such it has to look out for its own benefit. I imagine the situation as follows: A round table with Jesse Lyu and a handful of investors, designers and managers of marketing<\/em> talking about the form factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is form factor? Well, essentially, and if we talk about technology, it refers to the physical specifications, dimensions, and design of a device's components<\/strong>, such as computers, motherboards and other electronic devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesse has an idea that is create a LAM or Large Action Model<\/a> that allows you to interact with the data that we give you and teach through what would be a Teaching Mode or Teach Mode<\/em> how to ask that LAM to act for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to sell the Rabbit r1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

And at this point they asked themselves the key question: How do we sell that concept?<\/strong> I imagine that, obviously, the two options that are still being discussed today would arise. On the one hand, create an app to implement it. The other, a new product<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be sold as a gadget that frees you from your cell phone, agree on a spectacular design thanks to the geniuses of Teenage Engineering<\/a> and implement all this through that device to unite the concept to something physical, et voila.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rabbit r1 is not an app because it was decided that way for sales reasons and for me, as a business model it is great. You are looking for usable but cheap software. You add the value of a great design<\/strong> and you expand your idea\u2014which in the end is software\u2014thanks to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's perfect for me. You have enough profit margins to continue investigating<\/strong>, developing and improving the main idea that is the LAM and the concept of an artificial intelligence assistant, but with a device you have achieved much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rabbit r1 is what it is because the company decided so. It's one of the things that catches my attention the most in the reviews I'm seeing. They criticize the design decision and not the design. It's like telling Apple that its iWatch could have been an app and iOs. A nonsense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About buying an app instead of a Rabbit r1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

How many payment applications do you have on your mobile phone? A? Maybe two?<\/strong> Have you bought them at their normal price or have you waited for them to be on sale for some reason? These are perhaps good questions to ask yourself before ordering an app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I'll be clear: We are not used to paying for mobile applications<\/strong> and it doesn't seem like it's going to change. I write this from Spain. For you who are from the United States or another country, it may be different, but I would say that it is quite generalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have ads, in-app payments and is that the only way to obtain benefits<\/strong> When it comes to selling applications\u2014or this website itself\u2014it is thanks to ads. Rabbit couldn't afford to do it like that, at least in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

STOP HATING ON THIS THING! Rabbit R1 Review Time! Score at the end of the video! I'm so tired of tech bros hating on this thing. Sure its got a lot of improvements to make but this is WAY better than I thought it would be, and it shipped when they said it would. #rabbit<\/a> #innovation<\/a> #solid<\/a> #nostalgia<\/a> #trending<\/a> @rabbit r1 <\/p> \u266c Light hip hop beat \/ 10 minutes(1451578) \u2013 nightbird_bgm<\/a> <\/section> <\/blockquote>
