25% of youtube views are music, so add the revenue of Spotify to these, and it adds up


lol! I worked at Rabbit and left after reading through the codebase and being gaslit by the execs


If you don't mind sharing, what were some of the first red flags that you noticed in the codebase? Looking at all these jailbreaks and vulnerabilities visible from the outside, I'm sure they only scratch the surface.


Well? Aren't you going to spill some juicy details about the supposed "large action model"?


I believe the juicy details are "It's a marketing term for getting off-the-shelf LLMs to call out to pre-written browser automation scripts", but I'd love to hear it from the horse's mouth.


When I saw the browser/app automation “RAG” thingy in the first presentation I was instantly suspicious. I’m sure the AI is hard enough (that I don’t know) but I do know that everyone is fighting against automation and scraping, so it’s an arms race that’s very difficult to win. Simulating human behavior isn’t enough (sometimes being human isn’t even enough either).

For instance, I know that a fintech company (big name) had deployed a physical android phone fleet to sign in to banks on behalf of users, around 8 years ago. That’s because the bank had used extensive fingerprinting tech to lock out any automation.

It’s sad, but the world is much less interoperable than it used to be. That’s not Rabbits fault, but obviously lying about it is.


This is what coffeezilla said on his channel after speaking to devs at Rabbit


Sounds like you hopped a bullet.
