Can you explain practically how you interact with the Rabbit via the bluetooth keyboard? Do you stay in terminal mode?
In fact, Simon, this is exactly what struck me about the rabbit when I saw Jesse Lyu’s pitch: a device with which it is immediate to interact, with the PTT I can ask anything (more or less) and obtain answers without the need to take my smartphone and being distracted by notifications and other stuff. Minimize the distraction, obtain answers, that’s great for me.
Yeah, I basically exclusively use terminal mode at work. I have had a few cases where I use it as a translator or to quickly search something up with vision, but I generally just swap my keyboard to its bluetooth channel, do what I need to, then swap it back to wired so I can use my workstation again.
I work in the IT department and most of my use is tech questions which regular Rabbit is a bit short compared to beta Rabbit. I’m glad that Beta Rabbit has graduated. asking google could be a pain in the a** but Rabbit gives you a straight answer. especially compare specs between 2 or more components. so I always bring my bunny to work. the only downside is device still cannot tell the pic.
My main use case recently was getting information/feedback on various historical/global topics with hopefully minimal bias…it did well.
Scanning docs/letters for a summary to be read out has been handy too.
However, one case very recently where it’s been amazingly useful is working out the best deal before energy prices go up here in the UK. While I could sit down and work out comparison calculations (unit rate, peak/off-peak, standing charge rates) for the myriad of suppliers out there, I’ve just chatted with my r1 which has given me the best option in each case. Saved lots of time and eventually money. Chuffed…
Hi @silverfox,
Hi everyone,
regulary I use my rabbit r1 for the following (daily) tasks and tests:
- Weather forecast for my location
- Top news headlines from germany, also with additional questions about some news
- Record job meetings to create protocols etc.
- Translate texts
- Work out some suitable products for a technical solution in my job (e.g. Searching with beta rabbit for some computer models, which fit some criterias, like hardware specifications, prices/budget etc.)
- To create some useful scripts (in my IT job), e.g. Windows *.bat-files
- For some entertainment I use the rabbit often to generate text adventure games with ‘beta rabbit’
- Do many tests with rabbit r1 to answer some questions in this community board here or to find more use cases.
In the near future the mainly use case would be to use the ‘teach-mode’, which will be on the alpha progress soon. I am looking forward to this new great feature.
I really like my rabbit for letting me get random questions out of my mind…
I can ask a question and go back to what I was working on and when I’m done I can have the answer waiting for me.
I confess I’m also having a lot of fun with the magic camera too.
