Rabbit R1 review: somehow worse?

The adorable, whimsical and a very orange Rabbit R1 is here and it left us wondering if these AI-powered gadgets are even possible. The most intriguing tech in the R1 is what Rabbit calls the “Large Action Model”.

But in our week-long testing, the R1 has consistently proven to be underwhelming, underpowered and undercooked.
