Rabbit R1 It's a Scam

The lam clearly exists, as that is what maps from the LLM to actions, otherwise it wouldn’t be able to do anything.

The actions are definitely faulty, as per the door dash example. I can’t get Alexa to play my last audiobook consistently. They all suck. Amazon own audible and still can’t get it right.

It IS faster than chatGPT. Even if it’s using GPT for inference the transcription and TTS latency are less than is available from OpenAI - at least at present.

Rabbit is just a “better” understanding alexa with less actions IMHO. They all suck, so why pick on this one specifically? Amazon charges $50 for an echo dot which cant even answer a basic question.

:/ ok, fair I guess, difficult to argue on _expectations_, but you, me and the next (informed) guy know this is a scam by any stretch of the imagination. I really would like to save even a single person those $200.

The difference is how Alexa was advertised vs. how the rabbit r1 was advertised.
