The AI-powered Rabbit R1’s early reviews are in — it’s an unfinished hit
Source: Rabbit
Things couldn’t have started any worse for a new generation of AI-powered gadgets. After assembling an all-star team and spending years on product development, Humane’s Ai Pin was widely criticized by reviewers earlier this month. But the Rabbit R1 is turning heads — and opinions — with its early reviews.
The R1 is an AI-powered mobile device with a funky new hardware design. It weighs about the same as an iPhone and it comes with 128GB of storage and 4GB of RAM. It also comes packed with a sim card slot, a camera, and a USB-C charging port.
Some general takeaways from the early reviews:
The form factor is fun to play with
The device connects to Spotify, Uber, DoorDash, and Midjourney
It does well with basic prompts and questions
The camera can describe things it sees but doesn’t offer much else beyond that at this point
Some gestures and controls feel a bit wonky
It can’t do some important things like send emails at this point
Despite calling it “woefully unfinished,“ The Verge described the device as “silly and fun.“ TechCrunch echoed similar sentiments on the device’s limited capabilities but admitted that it’s “a little AI gadget that grows on you.“ While it leaves much to be desired, the first version of the R1 shows plenty of promise — and enough novelty to prove a hit with early adopters.

AI AGENTS
Cognition Labs hits double unicorn status as hype around AI agents soars
The narrative and hype in AI seem to shifting swiftly towards AI agents that automate entire workflows instead of just one-off tasks.
Cognition Labs, the company that recently debuted the AI coding agent Devin, has secured $175M in funding at a $2B valuation — an astonishing feat for a startup that’s only been around for some 6 months.
In a demo video that has gone viral on several social media platforms, Cognition Labs called Devin “The first AI engineer“ and claimed that it can plan a coding project, pick tools, write code, and debug the code autonomously. The company claimed that all of this is possible thanks to advances that it’s made in reasoning and long-term planning.
Aaron Levie, CEO of Dropbox maker Box, recently posted that “The next big breakthrough in AI is AI Agents. This is when AI goes from being used as an assistant to chat with, to using AI to accomplish complete tasks that a human might otherwise have to perform.“
It remains to be seen if and when the promise of AI agents pans out — we’ve had several false starts in recent years — but recent developments in the field show a clear shift in sentiment.
