Rabbit plans to release the first series of its pocket companions with artificial intelligence next year month at a price of $200.
As TechCrunch notes, the R1 device will also be able to support voice commands, thanks to Rabbit's collaboration with ElevenLabs (a company that has become very popular in the field of AI dubbing). Initially, the option will only be available in English and with one voice variation.
“We are working with Rabbit to advance the future of human-device interaction. Our collaboration aims to make R1 a truly dynamic companion,” said ElevenLabs CEO Mati Staniszewski.
In January, Rabbit said the R1 would use Perplexity AI to answer user questions, translate texts, place online orders, or play music.
ElevenLabs raised $80 million in Series B funding earlier this year from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman and entrepreneur Daniel Gross, achieving unicorn status. The company focused on providing voice cloning services for the creation of audiobooks, dubbing of films, TV shows and advertisements, and dubbing of video game characters.
At the same time, the startup faced criticism that some users were using the technology to fool bank authentication systems or to create fake voices of celebrities saying offensive things, declaring wars, or quoting Hitler.
