My observation of memory recall is that it is able to remember a single piece of information, such as my favorite color, however it has trouble going back and extracting information from a long block of text. For example, I saved a note of my girlfriend’s weekly work schedule then, days later, tried to ask r1 “what is my girlfriend’s work schedule today?”. Unfortunately, no matter how many variations of this I try, r1 is not able to recall the schedule at all, let alone understand it and tell me what the schedule is for the day I ask. I’d love to see r1 not only be able to recall notes but understand the context of the note and what the intention is.

I’ve experienced this issue many times. Sometimes my rabbit just generates random false information and tries to gaslight me into thinking it’s recalled when it clearly isn’t the information I earlier provided. The note summary completely doesn’t work. After taking several voice notes it informed me; “either I can’t access your notes or you’ve never taken any!” I look in rabbithole and there are at least a dozen. When I asked about the contents or summary of a specific note based on rabbithole summary / title, and it literally had no clue what I was talking about. Awful currently

I have similar issues—but I do seem to get a ‘hit’ more often by asking “Can you remember….rather than simply asking the question. I separately asked it to remember tidbits of information on my sisters (names, birthdays, addresses, children and their names) and then asking sequential questions prefaced with “can you remember…” yielded pretty good results

I have silly Trouble with Recall… Doesn’t like to work… often will ask to recall a list and “Saving a Note…”
I asked it to recall one yester day and got that - NOT A RECALL OPERATION! 
I can’t ever recall my Grocery List right… This morning it dosen’t even “exist” (see it!)

Agree. There should be a sort of learning skills to teach our preferences - I have asked for example to give me weather forecasts in celsius and to do it from now and in 2 hours r1 forgot completely! @simon what do you think? Will it be in the teachMode?

Following up, two months this is similar.
Anyone even get notes to work? I try with my grocery list and it NORMALLY Goes BAD. This morning I was talking about allergy medication I should get with R1. I stopped at the Grocery store and asked what is on my grocery list, just to have the list erased and updated with the Allergy medicine we discussed.
Recalls wouldn’t do anything for what was prior on there… Though Rabbit did look up Fruitlessly about how a R1 finds the prior list. Then just told me to search for myself in the Rabbit hole. It makes notes not very helpful.
Haha… was able to go home and erase the current one and yea then it went back and recalled details from EVERY grocery list I made.

I hope so. Something like custom instructions.
I wouldn’t mind having to point out specific instuctions like ‘talk to dungeon game’
Or
Update ‘grocery note’ add carrot cake to the top of the list.
We might need to be able to see them on our R1 to check what we can refer to.

I am having this same issue too with the Rabbit R1 device. In my experience, ChatGPT is way better at this recall stuff without even prompting it. It remembers everything I have ever told it and is able to bring it up in conversation when I have a question that is remotely similar. Maybe Rabbit Inc can switch to using ChatGPT instead.

I tried to tell the rabbit to make always a note to add photos to my answers and the answers should be in German language. - This time I was surprised that it worked 3 times. After that first no photos were shown anymore, and then also the answers started again to be in Englisch. The promt in my rabbithole showed in yellow: “user preferences”. Like in many other cases with the Rabbit, very often it is close to a right “behavior”, but not really exact and reliable. It is a pity, because therefore I have the Impression, that the rabbit is just a little off, but that’s the disturbing thing.

That’s right. It still can’t remember users’ preferences in the long term for now. As long as you ask a few questions, it will switch back to English. However, the official of Rabbit said that there has been progress in setting other languages as the long-term default for responses, but it hasn’t been determined when it will be launched. We can only wait patiently. (Maybe there will be a pleasant surprise at Christmas.)

Thank you for comforting me (and yourself) 
I am a person who never gives up, so I always try again different inputs, but the result is always the same - forgetting what I said. - One interesting thing: in my generative UI I wrote that answers should contain photos and the answer should always be in German. - The answers are read in English, but the written answer is in German - that´s really interesting. Also photos work most of the time. Both without asking the question to answer in German and provide photos. So the Team seems to be close to a solid solution.

I also taught others before to add the sentence “(Please reply to me in German)” after every question. Basically, this could achieve the expected results every time. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was effective.

You are right - this works without any problems, also with photos to add. But my big wish is to ask questions without having to add the same thing every time. And my thoughts about the rabbit are: it is a language oriented device, so it should be one of the first things to provide answers in other languages than English. My English is ok, but my thoughts - and so my questions - are in my mother tongue. Let´s hope for an early solution.

You can add “translate everything to german.” to your gen UI prompt. Voice response is still in English but the UI shows it in German.

Thanks, you are right and I already did it yesterday. In principle a good idea, but it is also a bit disturbing to listen to English and reading in German So the best solution at the moment seems to be for me that I always say “add photos and answer in German”, though it is not satisfying at all. At least the results are the best. BTW, do you have any idea how I can get more content. I already mentioned it in my Generative UI prompt (“Give me clear multicolored text answers with very narrative, very informative and extensive content”)

If you don’t know English very well or your pronunciation is not particularly accurate, you can use the translation app on your mobile phone to speak for you instead. I used it in the same way at the beginning. Since my English pronunciation was not particularly accurate, sometimes the “Rabbit” couldn’t understand me. (My initial thought was to ask the Rabbit team to directly set the system text to the language we need. After all, the fact that there are data packages for 100 languages in the device means that R1 could originally recognize other languages. I just asked them to translate the basic settings and “Rabbit Hole” into the language we need.) Then the Rabbit team said that the reason why the default multi-language feature couldn’t be used yet was that there would be errors in the answers and the recognition success rate would decline. Even just translating the settings would have an impact. (It’s already quite good that only about 50 people in their team could develop functions like the teaching mode and UI generation within a few months.) For now, we can only give them more time. After all, Apple’s AI doesn’t have a multi-language feature either at present.

My English is not bad. It also helps to give more information to the rabbit: instead of saying “I need information about the Amazonas”, it is better to ask “I need information about the river Amazonas” … just as an example, it helps the rabbit to understand your question better. Giving “flesh to the Bones” so to say…

Your example is also great. Indeed, sometimes just adding a few more key words will make the answers much more reliable.

yes, this was often really helpful, especially with special names, which English people pronounce it different. Most of the time a second term or word is very helpful.
