Rabbit R1 AI box revealed to just be an Android app (arstechnica.com)

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.

And in 10 years everyone will have similar ai-enhanced devices.

In 10 years (or actually 0 years because it's already kinda true) people will have an AI enhanced device... And it'll be their phone.

Also, you're arguing something I'm going to name the inevitability fallacy (for my own amusement). It's not inevitable that everyone will have one of these particular type of devices in the same way it wasn't inevitable that everyone would start watching 3d TV in their houses.

This is just another in a long line of things that supply side economics driven companies are trying to sell us. There's next to no need or demand for this thing, and there's no guarantee that there will be.
