  • Rabbit R1 AI box is actually an Android app in a limited $200 box, running on AOSP without Google Play.
  • Rabbit Inc. is unhappy about details of its tech stack being public, threatening action against unauthorized emulators.
  • AOSP is a logical choice for mobile hardware as it provides essential functionalities without the need for Google Play.

What's interesting about this device is that it (supposedly) learns how apps work and how people use them, so if you ask it something that requires using an app it could do it.

So while it might be "just an android app", if it does what's advertised that would be impressive.

Apps are designed to be easy to use. If this device works as advertised (and that's a huge if), then it wouldn't offer much in the way of convenience anyway. From what I've been reading, it doesn't work well at all.

Reviewers are saying it is not able to do this, along with several other promised features.
