Dude rugged an NFT project called Gamma
Forgot to talk about it
yep, just saw the vid. i now have mixed opinions about jesse. let's see how they get themselves outta this.
Soooo... you absolutely disregarded the most important part of his background. And that is when he was building the NFT crypto scam GAMA. Where he made millions of dollars and pretty much rugged everyone.
This is quite sus
Dude check the comments too. Super suss
just saw the vid last week. this is new leaked info, as i couldn't find much on GAMA when i did this video. anything regarding NFTs is a red flag for me, so i now have mixed opinions about jesse. let's see how they get themselves outta this.
Ooooh with Cofeezilla's new video, this did not age well.
just watched it yesterday. NFTs 🤮
@@theAIsearchhow much he pay you?
Hear me out: this Rabbit R1 CEO guy is definitely going to vanish with all the money, and there's no way he'll ever be found again.
lol seems possible given the current sentiment
You were right lol
Hey, it seems like you missed out the bit right before Rabbit where Jesse was part of the GAMA crypto project..? Did you catch that in your research?
yep, just saw the vid. let's see how they get themselves outta this
Well he mentioned it (more or less) but didn’t get the name change of that company. They changed the name of the company from „Cyber Manufacturing Co.“ late 2023 into Rabbit Inc. and Jesse claimed to be working on Rabbit since 2020 totally denying the GAMA scam he was on by that time.
@@theAIsearch This video is a disgraceful puff piece. Whatever Lyu paid you for it is not worth it. I'm now going to downvote, and then select "do not recommend this channel.
@@slabriprock5329me too I’m reporting the account
feels like an ad
it probably is, coffezilla just debunked this guy. ruclips.net/video/NPOHf20slZg/видео.html
Because it is
Finally a good video with some good sources and a fair review, thanks for this!
Thanks!
I bought it after the keynote and was surprised by the negative reception on YT without merit, I say Rabbit R1 maybe something we don’t actually know we need, it could be replaced by a phone app, yet the point is not to use a phone. Many of us are actually getting sick of apps and phone usage yet want to use the convenience of technology in leisure time. I guess the race for Ai is on and the only thing clear right now is that an early and innovative market that will at least for a few years provide us all with choice. That’s until a winner is found and then we are all bound by its power !!
I agree - there's a lot of negative videos on YT without merit. If what he demo'd was true, it would save me a lot of time and make me way more productive. Def worth a lot more than the 199 price point.
THISSSSSSS
must be the competition
Never watched a bad video about it yet. That being said, I’ve only watched about 10 videos or more on it.
I want one so I can be of phone free in my home
Didn’t aged well. It’s crazy to see this after all the development of knowledge we had about him and his product by now.
just saw the vid last week. i now have mixed opinions about jesse. let's see how they get themselves outta this.
This video was incredible. You explained his story so well! I especially liked your closing marks along the lines of “this isn’t the story of Jesse, but more like the start.” fantastic! you earned yourself a sub. keep making awesome videos ❤
Thank you so much!
Jesse sock puppet account.
Appreciate the research. I ordered an R1 right after the presentation at CES. For some reason the simplicity of the device is where I think he nailed it or Teenage Engineering nailed it.
Nice! I can't wait to get my hands on one
I bought two Rabbits after watching Jesse's presentation that day; one to play with when I get it and the other to remain unopened until my great great grandkids have a chance to sell it on eBay (or whatever, at that point) like an unopened original iPhone. Thanks for filling out my understanding of this very interesting young man. I can very confidently say now that I'm expecting some pretty great things out of him. And I'm really happy I've found your channel. Keep it up, please!
Nice! Thanks for sharing
That's a nice thought
Sorry to break the news, but Jesse is a scammer. He was doing an NFT project right before he started Rabbit, as soon as april 2023 he did. Please do your on reasearch by googling GAMA and Quantum Engine AI. Those are the same project, the NFT. He promised all backers, and then one day open sourced it and dissappeared with all the crypto.
He later legally renamed the company to Rabbit Inc. So it is literally the same crypto company but with a different name
This aged like milk 😭
Lmao😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is like a phone we control solely with our voice and has limited functions
yep. exactly what it's supposed to be. a simple computer u operate with your voice
Bravo!
I salute the amount of work that went into this wonderfully produced documentary. The info & presentation quality blew me away. I'm especially impressed with the transparent sources.
Thank you!
something fishy about this video?? anyone sense this as well? Who does a video so in depth after doing a background check on someone. Even fans of famous people dont go in such detail. humm.. perhaps i am wrong.
Bro got rabbit coins
How much the scammer pay you to side them?
Yes you are wrong
Oh Look. 3 months later and this is found to be a scam with many layers companies and crypto pump and dump scams. Hope any of you didn't loose money buying this bullshit.
@@96nico1how so?
Most ppl make the mistake of assuming LLM like chatGPT can do what rabbit R1 can do, thus it will be available in Iphone, android soon. Unless LAM(large action model) is widely available, it will still be some time away, but eventually, it will happen. Let the race begin.
Very well researched, thank you!
Thanks!
This sounds like functionality that will be implemented into an app, seems like making a physical device is just a way to grab attention. Why would I want to interact only through voice, I don't really want everyone around me to be listening in on my use of a device.
you can use a built in keyboard too
@@theAIsearch Yeah I saw that but it seems like a small keyboard and the device is designed to be used with voice
@@pingpong1727 the keyboard is the same size as an iphone's
if u don't want everyone around u to listen to u, then just use ear buds
it's not like he came out of nowhere. more recently, teenage engineering is a known synth music tech manufacturer.
That's the point, regular people don't create products like this
I came across one of those videos, highlighting stuff from the CES 2024, and when I saw this, I ran to my PC and pre-ordered one, I have been around at the start of many "new" technologies, consumers define where these products will go, R1 is just the infancy, of where this will go, yes it will evolve and within a few years will be something completely different, and you know what? I want to be a part of that change. I do feel that personal agents/assistance, with loyal AI (Loyal to consumer/user) is the future. R1 is the 1st step in that direction.
Amen!
I am horrified at some of the comments here from people that most probably don't even have the R1. I have it and though it still has plenty of space for improvement it's already a novelty and it's going to prove great with future updates. Also I suppose it's not the same being Jesse Lyu starting up with hardly any money than being the Humane's AI creators who had the economic backing of the big ones
I’ve been wanting something like this for years. Cool video
Thanks!
If he records music he might use their Amazing synths and hardware instruments
Wow~ It's a little assistant in your pocket that reminds you of your schedule when it's time to go, reads your texts out loud, and even more amazingly, knows which method to use to get the best results based on the situation. And I believe it can even predict the next outcome of an action through its vision perception of the object. It's a really, really amazing device. And thanks for the clarification Jesse.
I think he got some inspiration from Tamagotchi devices
the moment i heard him say music is a communication not a flex. Renaissance Man ..
I was so afraid you were going to say he’s completely incompetent. I’m a first adopter and don’t want to be scammed
It’s an early tech adapters product, probably second generation will be more suitable for common consumers. response times should be improved as far as I can tell.
Great report. This really helps. Congrats on your research
Thank you!
Isn't he considered a scammer? the rabbit R1 isn't working and isn't using LAM, but rather scripts?
with the new info that has leaked, this seems to be the case
Thank you for the good video. Now I am confident in my decision of order. I'm excited to see the device on March.
Nice! Are you part of the 1st batch?
@@theAIsearch Yes. I ordered it on the first day.
Does anyone know what Jesse Lyu Spotify is? I want to see if he is sharing some nice playlists.
I actually just found it! open.spotify.com/artist/3kGVA529uoHbicpSgQdVTX?si=pRx3KZTCSAeiYtE_eCz2Rw&nd=1&dlsi=a7bddbfbafdb4436
Mark my words
I think he is going to try using this kind of AI that can use a UI to make music with AI using music software.
That'd be cool!
My question is will Jesse Lyu release our information to the PRC, what protections do we have???
your data is being held by a company in israel, not rabbit. and besides, every person's information has already been released to china, europe, south america, and all over this planet 20 times over for at least the last 2 decades
If they put that rabbit os on top of a foldable phone, it can be an ai voice os, opening the folded phone, you get back to your traditional ios or android mode... Could be a great idea
interesting idea. fun fact, the R1 is exactly half the size of an iphone
You would think the big tech companies would make a LAM device but if you take a close look at these companies they make money off of segmentation, moreover they make money off of different apps (especially Microsoft) than have an all in one. There is no profit incentive to combine apps only to separate them. I just asked ChatGPT Dall-E to make a Facebook friendly picture with specific words for my background pic and nope, it could only tell me how to do it. Dall-e could not reproduce the wording on the picture correctly even though I specifically spelled it out. Even the directions on how to do it were vague. It just said do it using a picture software no recommendations for free ones. The days of keeping your "skills" close to the chest are over people, I know this is the real reason people will hate Rabbit R1. Rabbit R1 will be an equalizer that took people years to develop skills I can catch up in an hour of teaching the app how to do it or maybe even seconds. Hate the system not the product.
Excellent review of Jesse, we just have to hope he is not working for the PRC, they are ruthless in recruiting and hunting people down to work for them just like our CIA.
BRO, TALK ABOUT HIS GAMMA PROJECT. THIS IS THE DUMBEST REVIEW I HAVE SEEN. HE TOOK 6 MIL AND STARTED THIS PROJECT AFTER HIS CRYPTO SCAM.
17:20 "this is just the beginning" - grabs popcorn
Could this be like a really good set up for April fools? Just curious
Spend the time and money and we all become world class warcraft players. Been playing since 2005. Also a majority of the apps he was referring to you can create in python. Taking nothing away from Jesse he created a need before the want. Now let's see if he's a better marketer as he is a developer.
Great video. I wish this was an app and not another piece of hardware. I just can’t see people using 2 pieces of hardware when most of us have a phone fully capable of doing it all if this was an app. 🤷🏼♂️
Thanks. That was my initial thought too. However, he explained in a recent interview that building the hardware was a necessity, not a choice. He wanted a device optimized for the rabbit os.
Feels like The Pebble smart watch - I bought every pebble made - hope Apple doesn’t do to Rabbit what it did to Pebble
Ps amazing performance
I predict this capability will soon be folded into Alexa and Siri. Yet, these guys seem to have developed an AI OS that can do many things seamlessly, so who knows. To me, people don't want to carry another device so it will be a better solution if this tech can be integrated into IOS and Android. It will be interesting to see how limited (or not) the Rabbit is when delivered and if they can stay ahead of the giants that will be chasing them down- like the breakaway rider trying to stay ahead of the peloton and get the victory.
This tech whizkid is a genius, & he has proved over the years !
😃
Thank you for this. Quite unusual to remain unknown in the tech world, but Lyu is from China - a country with much talent & high IQ people. Hope this sets a precedent.
Thanks so much for this video it made me subscribe
Thanks for the sub!
nice, so they have been working on this for more than 9 years effectively.
I have pain in my neck for using the phone, sometimes seems Slowly going of one app to another app on the phone, I think this is brilliant and what I am needing now
+ shoulder, back, wrist pain for me from using a mouse/keyboard all day!
really good video with great research behind. Thank you
Thanks!
Shouldn’t this thing be just an app on your phone?!?
I was blown away by the demo and it immediately made me a big fan of Jesse. I wish I could’ve gotten my preorder in sooner but am looking forward to seeing what I can teach my rabbit to do
The rabbit eye looks like a game changer. If it can for example look at a meal and calculate nutritional value and look at plants and recommend care , that replaces 2 paid apps. I’ve found many of the best apps require a yearly subscription. Rabbit doesn’t require a subscription.
It will still be a tough sell because people already pay for a thousand dollar phone and LTE fees. How important is it to spend extra money to eliminate screen taps?
I find it odd to take money before the product is available. Why? Makes me think they have zero capital and the company can collapse with no support for users.
However I remember using PDAs and blackberries too. We didn’t see the iPhone and apps coming.
This could be the next wave.
which game is it changing? where do you think your answers will come from when you ask it to calculate the nutritional value?
@@sxuld The answers will come from the big data base in the sky aka the internet. Preliminary user reviews are poor BTW. Game change is pricing. 199 vs 1200 iPhone
"If it can for example look at a meal and calculate nutritional value"
Not there yet. While it can likely do this for simple food say like a simple vegetable, the problem I ran into with meals is that it cannot "see" how the meal was prepared and other things that were added to give u an accurate amount. For example, I asked for the calories in my marinara chicken and it couldnt identify it was chicken due to the marinara sauce on it.
"look at plants and recommend care"
yes it can do this.
"I find it odd to take money before the product is available. Why?"
it's a startup. they need funding to get things moving bc generally startups are "poor". and i'm sure it also involves other things like they have to prove to their VC's that the product is worth them giving them more money for
"Makes me think they have zero capital and the company can collapse with no support for users. "
99% of startups fail for just that reason. they collapse for 2 reasons, either no support from users or they run out of capital before the company takes off.
i've worked for several startups and they sell hope with low capital. that's just the nature of the beast.
just be thankful this device is only $200 so if it fails, at least it was a cheap fail, no big loss
@@johnpwrites pay 1200 for a device that can literally do anything vs a 200$ brick. you do you man but game changing my ass
@@sxuld I didn’t say I was buying it, bro.
I guess AI guys are the new NFT bros, so easy to scam with bullshit.
yeah feels like it.
Completely wild that this dude could make an 18m video about "Jesse Lyu's backstory" and completely fail to mention that his biggest and most recent achievement was a multimillion dollar NFT scam.
Very well-made and well researched. Good job!
Thank you!
It's a shame it's orange instead of the clean, simple gray from Teenage Engineering.
Jun 30th here, another tragic drama for his company and product... if it haven't already since the last, this video def does not age well now 😅
lol yep i wrote about this in my newsletter aisearch.substack.com/p/rabbits-deadly-data-leak-ai-creates
Wow that was a good research and presentation.
Thanks!
Have you noticed every CEO nowadays are not from America? NVIDIA, AMD, Microsoft… And the Americans CEO owns falling companies like Intel or Meta.
haha good point!
I cant make a connection of his past with possible success of rabbbit. Piano music warcraft and rabbit ai? What is the relation here?
Got into YC twice. Successfully sold company to Baidu.
the relation is being able to critically think in different schools of thought. many tech bros and women aren't just into tech. we also generally have music and gaming talent too. it's the challenge in mastery that's the relation here
Bro in his background nothing checks bc there’s actually nothing that says anything that he’s good in coding! I mean being a Warcraft player is not exactly coding! Producing music or whatever! Red flags!
For sure, He’s unlikely a “Theranos, Elizabeth Holmes”
Well, Steve Jobs couldn't code
@eddyevodius Gotta get on the cover of Forbes first!
@@theAIsearch yes and after that hoping he'd find another breakthrough (in positive term)
@@theAIsearch agree👍
This is great! I was hoping to learn how os2 (the predecessor to rabbit and the r1 came into the story. The website existed a few months ago, but eventually became rabbit’s site. It was a really cool demo of realtime voice communication with an AI. It was a really cool experience and its goal was to be the kernel for other os’s and systems iirc.
Regardless, this was a great video! I’m glad to hear Jessie has the track record to back up the product :)
Oh that's interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Nice, informative video.
Thank you!
❤ Impressively user-friendly device, r1! #RabbitAI
It caught my attention because of the camera. 🤷🏽
Combine this with elon's chip and you won't even have to speak out loud to it.
Thank you. Been looking tor something about Jesse and the R1. Great video.
Thanks!
@@theAIsearch Welcome. Looking forward to more .
The stupidity it takes for someone to use it in public. I will judge lmao.
Im waiting on my rabbit R1. im tired of the app system. I agree with many points this devices purpose.
Nice! I can't wait to try it out
don’t give elon that credit
I love the art of OSINT :)
Not sure the device is the answer, but this software will be gobbled up by one of the tech giants. Assuming he would sell it…
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out
Yeah YNWA our long lost brother
Bunch of scammers, it takes 10 second to see through the BS ... 😅
Wow! Well covered! Please don’t lose this quality research drive.
Thanks!
Great video. The more you think about it, the more you realise how smart it was to announce the Rabbit as an actual product. If it was an app or even a smart piece of software, nobody would be talking about it still and there's nothing physical for social media to paste all over their thumbnails and images. The screen resolution looks naft, I'm also from an age/generation where I still like the tactile-ness of buttons, so voicing my intentions to an AI assistant wouldn't be for me but I could imagine a lot of this becoming the norm in the near future.
Thanks. Indeed, the look of the device garnered a lot of attention
Teenage engineering should have made you think its legit
Great content
Thanks!
brilliant, great share - this product is fascinating and pure genius - he has presence in the early vids also, interesting
Thanks!
Presence? You mean like his dead eyes and completely expressionless face? lmao what are you smoking.
People who is thinking that the rabbit R1 can be replaced by an app, are wrong. The reason is, no one will use the app actually, and it will be forgotten by a time. The Rabbit is a Hardware! much more valuable, and it has a fanbase! I think its pretty cute and unique!
Watch the review and youd see why its pretty much a gimmick box
Can u make a video about the upcoming new ai device from openai
I mean any updates
you mean the new models & API usage?
@@theAIsearch nope they're making a new device like rabbit .. Sam Altman and legendary iPhone designer Jony Ive are reportedly working on a consumer AI device
Oh yes, I'll defintely make a video on any announcements from this. Exciting times!
Wait! When you told us to subscribe, the subscribe button lit up in various colors! Never seen that! Convinced!
such a pointless thing that wont work. I am confused why people are hyped about this
Sadly this is not going to be a success as it is too big and will have to fight for your pocket space with your wallet and phone unlike smart watches or smart glasses which have unique locations and if this is a success the mobile manufactures itself will add this best I can see for this company is that it will have an initial fad and then either it will go down or best case scenario it would be acquired by another company for the software like razor acquired nextbit phone company........😕😕😕😕
😂 1 year later apple releases the AI POD, in the same form factor as the original ipod
LOL
His business depends of other business,
?
your phone is a petri dish of businesses depending on other businesses so not sure what you're getting at here
Bots galore
Nice happy video.
Thanks!
A man and his dream…
Jesse now is the coolest kid in Silicon Valley.
@ 12:33 😂😂😂
Such a good video man.
Appreciate it!
1:37 wtf
He's just an Gamma NFT scam guy 😂

Thank you!
Watching 3weeks from this video. Only saw RabbitR1 about 3weeks ago, and I bought one two weeks ago. Less than a month, I learned more and more about everything around this man and company. I never felt more comfortable about a technology. I fought against the switch from android to iPhone. I fought again to switch my tablets. And once again to switch laptop to custom PC. I am very hesitant with technology and won't buy something I don't feel will advance my life. Definitely not one for fads as I create my own art, and music as I now know Jessy does. I BARELY HESITATED ON THIS> SO Should you?
wow well researched
Thanks!
Rabbit R1 is a failure.
Scam promotion ! 👏
Is this the scam everyone is talking about?
Spoiler....It is.
