Only 5,000 people employ Rabbit R1 every day

Pour one into rabbit R1. Only 5,000 of the 100,000 people who bought the orange AI gadget are still using it every day, five months after its launch. This comes straight from the mouth of Rabbit founder Jesse Lyu, who he gave the number Fast Company explaining that the device had to be launched before it was ready to beat the huge tech companies.

Apparently, the Rabbit update “does everything for you” as part of a “grand operating model” that supposedly allows it to log into websites and, for example, order plane tickets or dinner for you when you ask for it will be released on October 1. Will it inspire people to dust off their Rabbit R1s and carry one more thing in their pocket, just for AI? Considering Apple and Google are promising this to local AI knows what’s on your screen and maybe do something for you in many applications… well, that seems unlikely.
