i missed the June 15 promo for extra free tasks :(.
Agree with the nzwaneveld that it took a bit to learn what to do with intern.. and agree that the cost may be a barrier to some.
That being said.. by my 3rd task.. I finally had a session with Intern that I felt good about.. and came away VERY impressed with Rabbit.
I was wondering where the downloads go as I clicked on download.. got a satisfying status message from intern (downloading).. but my browser (safari on a mac). did not show that it was downloading. and there was nothing in my downloads folder. I will go back and try using safari commands to download next time.
Intern is a slam dunk. Ive experimented with deep research on Gemini and GPT. Theyre ok, but the value add here is the output quality. The paperwork is professionally done. Im not sure about the pricing. It seems to be at an enterprise level. I dont think accessible to the average user. Although I realize Gemini and GPT top out at about the same pricing or higher.
Short version: it’s very hard to price AI as service (i.e. per prompt) and/or price it based on the human labor cost it saves. This is because AI is seen as software and there is a limit to what ppl/companies are willing to pay for software.
This may also mean that there is an optimum for the cost/power ratio of an AI-service because there is a limit to the willingness to pay no matter how powerful the service is.
Of course this may change as the market starts to value AI services differently from software products.
I mean no ill either, but…the opposition will and is offering very similar but at 25 tasks a month, including everything else in the sub. Iv’e tried it, as I am subbed (see I am not against valued subs) and it was so very good at the task. I have not used R-IOS since finish of beta (apart from a mistake use) but the version (the opposition) I tried today as it hit my screen today was impressive to say the least. I really want the R1 and Rabbit Inc to success but its a vicious space. I so much dislike posting anything negative anywhere, and this is not that. I am trying to say from this side of the fence I can not see at the price you offer the IOS being value when I compare is all.
The new creation mode is pretty neat and gives users potential to maximise the features and abilities of the R1. The only limitation here is that standard users like myself are not using intern because the price is wayyyyyy to steep. Therefore my creation abilities are vastly limited. Which is a real shame because if people were given the ability to create freely then possibilities would be endless and it could revolutionise user experience.
I think you ought to consider making creation mode and intern mode two separate features. This would give more creative abilities to standard users. You may even find that standard user’s starting out with creation mode may become more advanced and from that consider moving to intern mode for more complex tasks. (Where guess everything gets more advanced)
I also share question on precisely how one credit is used in it’s entirety, is it based on the end result and satisfaction that it has completed its given task? What if I send a prompt and it needs an adjustment or tweak? Is that one task or two? As a novice tinkerer I can’t imagine it completing the mission first time. With that uncertainty I am apprehensive to even test it out on the free credits.
we are not all advanced techies some of us are kits.
Anyhow I would really like to see what people have done using intern out of curiosity
I’m definitely late to the Intern party as a day 1 R1 owner who tried out his first task today. I missed out on the promo but was wondering if there are (or will be) any educational pricing. I’m an elementary school teacher in Toronto and the potential for the Intern to supplement and enhance classroom experiences seems limitless. Cost is definitely a barrier as I can’t expense it and it’s unlikely our school board would be willing to cover it. I’m assuming the daily task refill (9/day) for R1 owners no longer exists either so once my current available tasks run out, I would need to sign up. Any suggestions for a teacher on a budget?
