Maybe they are hoping to get purchased by one of the big players (Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple, …) the way that Apple bought Siri.

Maybe they are hoping to get purchased by one of the big players (Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple, …) the way that Apple bought Siri.
- jsheard 2y agoMaybe that is their hope but Siri actually developed things that Apple wanted, their speech recognition was licensed from Nuance but IIRC the natural language parsing and speech synthesis was done in-house. OTOH Rabbit and Humane seem to mostly just be haphazardly gluing third party APIs together to assemble a product that barely works. What exactly would they bring to the table in an acquisition?
- mikequinlan 2y agoRabbit is promising their Large Action Model (LAM) software, their "rotational eye" and associated software, and maybe an AI trained on actual user conversations.
- dagmx 2y agoWhat use case does the rotational eye give it?
- threeseed 2y agoSure. But they have promised a lot and delivered very little. And from people who have used the Rabbit the LAM concept as they have done it is unusable e.g. it was ordering from DoorDash to the wrong address / incorrect tip and they had no way to change it. User experience is just as important as the technology.
