[애플경제 전윤미 기자] After last year’s iPhone 15, the Apple Vision Pro and Samsung Galaxy S24 series are launched and compete, both ahead and behind. However, with the recent launch of the Rabbit R1 at ‘CES 2024’, they are said to have been moved away from the spotlight. In particular, some argue that the Apple Vision Pro has lost its luster to the Rabbit R1.

Rabbit R1 also appeals to young millennials and Generation Z

Rabbit R1, an AI-based hardware that made a deep impression at “CES 2024”, also attracts attention with the physical design of a thoughtful kit for young millennials and Generation Z. In this regard, “TechCrunch ” he said: “Unlike the Apple Vision Pro, the Rabbit R1 has good low economics, much closer to what future generations want.” everyone.” “It’s a technology aimed at getting as close as possible to the State.”

Rabbit R1 can perform most functions similar to a smartphone. It uses artificial intelligence to perform all tasks, including answering queries in natural language. That is, such functions include playing music, booking airline tickets, giving directions, calling a car, ordering food, and real-time translation.

RabbitR1 already has the potential to become a strong competitor in the human AI market. We don’t yet know exactly what its function will be. “However, expectations are rising that it will definitely have massive AI-based natural language processing capabilities.”

However, Apple Vision Pro is already widely known. They introduced a “preview” program that allowed all types of media and influencers to try out the headphones via demos. As a result, I am quite familiar with the operation and performance of the Apple Vision Pro.

Since its launch, its performance and visual capabilities have impressed us deeply. But reactions have been mixed, from setup complexity to UI elements like the visual keyboard to wearability and long-term comfort.

The VR headset is optional while the AI ​​generated is essential

However, what Apple revolutionized was the mobile phone, which is also a computing paradigm. Of course, it is used and appreciated by general consumers everywhere. TechCrunch stated, “I can’t tell you how many people today say they use ChatGPT every day for real work that has nothing to do with the tech industry” and “and vice versa.” In other words, “unless you are professionally connected to technology, you probably don’t own or regularly use any VR headsets.”

Rabbit R1, like various AI devices released into the human AI market, has many issues that need to be resolved before it can be widely used. However, the difference is that they share the common characteristic of generative artificial intelligence.

Apple says, “We created the iPhone when people already loved cell phones and were starting to love smartphones.” So, Rabbit introduced R1 at a time when people preferred artificial intelligence. It is based on large-scale language models like ChatGPT.

In contrast, despite about 10 years of efforts, the use of VR, XR and AR headsets has not been used on a large scale. Meanwhile, Apple presented the Vision Pro again. At the same time, people think that virtual reality will solve everything, but in fact a small startup (Rabbit) presented a broader vision. TechCrunch commented: “By attempting the next generation of innovation, companies like Rabbit are working toward a more realistic and workable version of the computing future than some legacy players (like Apple) that continue to fail.”
