Download rabbitOS 2.0 for R1 Device with Card UI, Unlocks Full Touchscreen, and CreateΒ Apps The controversial Rabbit r1, marketed as an AI companion device, just received the biggest software update so far; taking it closer to what it's actually meant to be. Today, the AI device company Rabbit unveiled rabbitOS 2 for the r1 featuring a complete user interface overhaul, card-based design, and revolutionary "creations" feature that lets users build software through conversation with AI agents.

This kind of coverage was unthinkable a year ago. Lesser companies would have died, and many thought we would. Instead we kept shipping, kept building, kept fighting. And now here we are. Back in the game, back in the fight. It's true - what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. #rabbitr1 #rabbitOS2

I want to make sure that #rabbitr1 is well represented here on Bluesky, so if you own one, reply and let me know!

We have one more software update drop for #rabbitr1 before the end of the year and I think it might be our best one yet πŸ’œ

If you cannot remember the chords for the song, just ask the rabbit #R1, it's going to be much easier

I think over 100k sales of r1 is a very respectable number. It's orders of magnitude higher than what we anticipated, and I don't know of anyone else that has come close, to date.

I also have the r1 in the stand underneath the monitor! The perfect place to keep it.

Not suppressing links is and will continue to play a quiet but major role in the success of this platform.

The web was built for connections, and links are the plumbing. It's ridiculous, that thanks to Instagram, "link in bio" and such things are understood vernacular.

I would love to see a video of this in action when you do it!

A photo of various electronic devices. The setup includes a red handheld device with a bunny icon on the screen, Rabbit R1, a circular transparent gadget with visible internal components, my OrionKit, a black and orange Flipper Zero displaying "Mr. Robot" on its screen, and a custom handheld device running Kali Linux with a keyboard and touchpad, my HackberryPi

Can you ever have too many handheld devices? I don’t think so!

Rabbit R1
Seeed Studio's SenseCAP Watcher (now my OrionKit)
Flipper Zero
HackBerryPi

Soon to have a ClockWork uConsole!

What’s your favourite handheld gadget?

Today, I played a bit with the #rabbitr1. This device doesn’t deserve all the hate I've read about it. Ok, it’s not what they promised. But doing vacation or black Friday research with Cyberpunk 2077-inspired UI? It really seems like the future

#rabbitr1 is a great little motivation machine, with a touch of my own personal generative UI πŸ’œ

whenever you want, just press the button and ask for a motivational/inspirational quote.

Glad to see this starter pack of Ex Tweeps starting to get populated!

Thanks @aviralsrivastava.com for making it and verifying folks on it.

The Slack instance is β€œForever A Tweep” - I think that’s the only one I’m in that you would be in, as the other instance I have is for EMEA tweeps.

The use of #AI in our daily lives will be as common as using a smartphone as soon as you're up in the morning. Just wait a few years...

We just shipped a new OTA on #rabbitr1! We added display sleep settings, some fixes for generative UI, and a holiday easter egg (see if you can find it!)

quite dystopian scenes at #london #euston with the main entrance from the tube closed and diverted (apparently a man seen on the floor convulsing), and a power cut with emergency lighting on the main concourse with all the screens off. this on top of some flooding cancellations earlier.
