the introductions thread! šŸ‘‹

Hey. Hope you’re doing well. Great use for the r1. Maybe some timers and reminders might be helpful for you when it gets released

yeah, I’m doing real good. You wouldn’t know I had a stroke unless I told you.

And yes, I’m looking forward to the timers and reminders. But I’d also like it to have memory of the notes I dictate (as opposed to everything in the Rabbit Hole). And hopefully the LAM will support that task apps I use, or that the Learn will allow me to build them myself.

Hi all,
I’m Mike and I’m glad to be here and a part of this community. You may not know me, Ive been on the Discord server since 1/14. I haven’t posted much but I’ve been there everyday reading and learning. I am such a big fan of the r1 and what it promises to be. I am happy to be here and be part of the ride. I was hooked since the keynote. I have purchased one for each of my two sons, myself and one that I am going to give away tomorrow at an AI presentation that I’m doing. I am also hoping to turn that into a social experiment. I’ll ask the recipient to take pics and vids of their experience and report back to me weekly to get their feedback. More on that in the future hopefully. Anyway I’ve been in IT for about 35yrs. Today I run an MSP firm that supports the tech of small and medium sized businesses. I love tech and especially gadgets. I’m looking forward to collaborating with all of you and rabbit to see how far we can ride this r1 train.

Hey folks! Droloz, same on Discord, but my name is Alejandro. I’ved worked in consumer tech and B2B tech public relations for about 15 years now. Currently based in San Francisco but have lived in Los Angeles and Bangkok for a couple years. I’m a big fan of the r1 and I’m really enjoying the journey we’re on here. I got my career started in the tech startup space so being a part of these early products has always been fun to me and excited to see what comes next.

Love playing video games and roller skating as my two biggest hobbies right now. Love 70/80s dance music, 90s hip hop, and chillin to more synth recently. Happy to be here!

Hi all! My names Justin, in discord as Didd3kong! I work for a big financial company in the cyber division, and with the expansion of AI, felt that getting into the rabbit was a no brainer! I got my rabbit a few weeks ago, and I love it!

My favorite thing to do with it lately is military history! As a prior Army vet myself, and coming from a military family, I’ve been looking into historical military units, and making any comparisons I can! Fun fact, the unit I deployed to Afghanistan with, and my great uncles unit were in the same spot for WW2!

Looking forward to getting to know you all, and thanks for having me!

Hey everyone!

Glad to be here. Currently in the Boston area as an Account Manager for a compostable packaging company and doing volunteer work when I can. Before that was a professional chef for a long time, but originally many moons ago started off in IT. Always been into tech and gadgets, so im interested to see where the r1 goes.

Game quite a bit, mostly on PC these days, and listen mostly to rock, synth, and anything lofi. Always pumped about anything horror too - the gorier and more messed up it is, the more I’ll like it lol

Hi everyone, great to be here.

My name is Dave, SkyHawkUK my username originates from way back when I hosted a Drone Facebook group, which led to co-founding a Drone Company here in the Uk with my 2 sons, we’ve been trading for 5 years now in the commercial drone sector.

My hobbies include Photography, Aerial drone video , along with editing photo’s and video. I suppose I’m a bit of a tech freak, super hyped for the Rabbit r1.

Hey Folks,
I’m Domko and I’m a:

  • Security Engineering Nerd
  • 3d Printing Aficionado
  • Big fan of building hacky things that make my life easier.

I like to tell people ā€œI work at a place that makes an AI Walkie Talkieā€, and I’m excited to see all the integrations folks come up with :slight_smile:

Hi Domko,
Glad to meet you. We should have more staff join us here. May I ask what you do at rabbit? is it security related?

8 Likes

Yes - I joined in march, but in true startup culture, it feels like I’ve been here for years already :slight_smile: I don’t know how many other folks will join in, (I envy Simon and the rest of the CS/Community team sometimes because they get paid to focus on our awesome community… and I spend most of my time focused on, ā€œhow do I prevent bad things from happeningā€)

Seeing the cool stuff that people want to do with the R1 recharges my batteries, so I’m going to pop in every now and then and:

  • see if there is some cool project that ā€œdomko the nerdā€ can help with (not ā€œdomko the security dude at rabbit)
  • browse the forums to recharge :slight_smile:
  • keep an eye out for things that I might need to do in a more official capacity.

Our community managers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with, so I’m hoping to avoid the last one as much as possible :slight_smile: I joined rabbit because I saw the buzz back in January, and it reminded me of what I wanted my Mr Meeseeks project to be :slight_smile:

Hey everyone, Ben here, I’m a videographer and photographer based out of North Carolina. I’ve been working in the creative space professionally for about 15 years now, but I’ve been doing video and photo my whole life. My proudest work is probably when I was able to work on a Smithsonian documentary about Blackbeard’s (the pirate) ship, as a kid I was interested in that time period so being able to work on that documentary series was awesome.

I love movies, my top five are Jurassic Park, JAWS, The Dark Knight, Her, Empire Strikes Back.

I also have a love for photography and my all time favorite photographer is Nick Brandt, definitely check out his work and his foundation if you can @ NickBrandt.com really cool photos and mission.

Music is great, favorite artists are John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Post Malone, Chris Stapleton, The Beatles, Guns N Roses, the list goes on for a bit, but you get the idea, I just love music lol.

I love a lot of things, but mostly love my family, friends, and hobbies.

After receiving my r1 I’ve been interested to see how well it adapts into my life and how I can use it going forward, lovely to meet you all and excited to be here!

In what ways is the r1 better for accessing LLM than a phone? I’m not challenging your statement. Just curious. I subscribe to ChatGPT and use it a lot for coding questions (sorry, Stack Overflow!), so find the ability to copy/paste answers quickly a plus. Can’t do that with r1.
