Brief news summary

AI gadgets are becoming increasingly popular, with companies like Google, Samsung, Meta, and Microsoft releasing devices that heavily integrate generative artificial intelligence. Rabbit, a company that aims to simplify computing, has introduced the Rabbit R1, a device that reduces the steps it takes to perform tasks compared to a smartphone. Other companies, like Humane, have also entered the AI gadget market with products like the AI Pin, which aims to provide a more focused relationship with a smartphone. However, reviews of the AI Pin have been negative, with critics citing limited features and unreliable AI-generated answers. Despite the popularity of AI gadgets, many believe that smartphones still do everything these gadgets try to do, making them unlikely to dominate the market anytime soon.

2023 was the year of AI software, and now in 2024, AI hardware is taking the spotlight.

Early adopters see potential in the R1, hoping it could become the next groundbreaking device. Another AI gadget making waves is the Humane AI Pin, a wearable device that aims to create a more focused relationship with smartphones. However, the AI Pin has received overwhelmingly negative reviews for its limited features and unreliable AI-generated answers.
