At CES, everything was AI, even when it wasn’t::CES showcased a lot of products with AI. But it runs the risk of devolving AI into a buzz word, making it harder to be impressed with all the great engineering involved.

    The rabbit r1 is kinda interesting. Or would be, if it was either: a) an app that I have installed on my phone, replacing Google assistant, Bixby, siri, etc… b) a smartwatch. Why it needs to be this rediculous form factor is beyond me.

      The ridiculous (and strangely beautiful) form factor is the only reason we’re talking about it. At this point, if you want to launch a product and get eyeballs on it, you partner with Teenage Engineering and lean into whatever comes out as a result.

      It’s probably not going to be an actually useful device but it would have been even less successful if it was an app.
