Rabbit R1 Eulogy, Swedish VR Hacks, Self-Driving Chaos, & AI Pets | EP22

BARK IF YOU LOVE AI! THEN SUBSCRIBE, YOU FUTURE-PROOF PUPS!

In this week's episode of "They Might Be Self-Aware," we kick off with a eulogy for the Rabbit R1, whose brief existence was marked by connectivity issues. Is the Apple Vision Pro headed for the same fate? We explore its dusty present and potentially crisp future.

Meanwhile, the Oculus Quest finds its purpose assembling Swedish furniture. Could it be a match made in Sweden? We also delve into the Tesla FSD—was the free trial worth it?

Waymo cars are driving way off course, but can they get a ticket if there’s no driver? We dive into the East vs. West showdown: does it matter who pulls the trigger when AI is involved? The lines blur as AI fires a room full of 60 writers, replacing them with...more AI.

And, can dogs talk? Can we make them? Should they? Join us as we explore the ethics and possibilities of canine communication.

Your future might depend on it!
