Rabbit r1 is Powering Voice Commands with ElevenLabs Integration

Rabbit r1 is a small device you can hold in your hand, interact with, and have it do tasks like ordering food, booking an Uber ride, or even getting answers to your questions, allowing you to keep your phone away while you're at it. And now, Rabbit has partnered with ElevenLabs, an AI voice cloning provider, to power voice commands on R1.

The things that one can do with the rabbit r1 may sound like what we already have with virtual assistants, but there is a difference between them and the like of Siri, Google Assistant, and Alexa.

You actually can't do so much with virtual assistants, if we really look into it, and they are almost redundant in apps that aren't supported. They are more like voice interfaces that allow you to select apps and features with your voice and get some things done. With rabbit r1, it's a different ball game.

Rabbit r1 interacts with the apps, features, and websites we use not just through some interface, but does so in the way that you would, by clicking buttons and navigating. It runs on a large action model trained by the company itself, Rabbit, based on visual recordings of common apps (screenshots and videos). That way, when you ask it to play a particular song from an artist from a particular time and album, it actually knows to go to the artists' page and do it similar to how you would.

Large action models are essentially models taht are built and developed to process, understand, and predict lines of actions, rather than text. And they are used in applications such as strategy planning, gaming for dialogue generation, and autonomous agents in robotics.

The 115g touchscreen device built with a 360° camera and speakers is more like an agent that will interact with it's user. And with ElevenLabs on board, the partnership is to make interactions with r1 more human like.

“We’re working with rabbit to bring the future of human-device interaction closer. Our collaboration is about making the r1 a truly dynamic co-pilot, ” ElevenLabs’ CEO Mati Staniszewski said in a prepared statement. _Source

ElevenLabs' AI voice cloning technology generates synthetic voices that sound realistic enough. In as much as a person's voice is like their fingerprint and unique to them, their voices can be generated (with samples) and even better used to pass Voice ID.

Seeing how a reporter at Vice used ElevenLabs AI-voice to break into his account, it proves how good ElevenLabs' voices are, and it makes sense to have it on rabbit r1. ElevenLabs has now rolled out a tool to detect speech created by its platform and is also working on a tool to detect synthesized audio and distribute it to third parties. _TechCrunch

Interacting with the already-impressive rabbit r1 and it's features with ElevenLabs onboard will provide users with a more natural and nuanced experienced.

The rabbit r1 will also be equipped with Perplexity AI to answer questions, and Perplexity AI is a mix of a few prominent chatbot models like Anthropic's Claude and OpenAI's ChatGPT models. Rabbit r1 costs $200 and the company rolled out it's first batch on March 31st.
