The Rabbit R1 is a device for chatting with ChatGPT, getting answers, taking notes, playing music, and more. In my early tests, it’s fun to use but not yet all that functional.

There were times I wasn’t sure the Rabbit R1 was even a real thing. The AI-powered, Teenage Engineering-designed device came out of nowhere to become one of the biggest stories at CES, promising a level of fun and whimsy that felt much better than some of the more self-serious AI companies out there. CEO Jesse Lyu practically promised the world in this $199 device. Well, say this for Rabbit: it’s real.

This is all fairly basic ChatGPT stuff, and there’s some definite lag as it fetches answers, but I much prefer the interface to the Humane AI Pin — because there’s a screen, and you can see the thing working so the AI delays don’t feel quite so interminable. 'Because there’s a screen, the AI delays don’t feel quite so interminable' Almost immediately, though, I started running into stuff the R1 just can’t do.
