**AIBI Pocket Pet – a ChatGPT-powered robot you can actually take everywhere. Anyone using it outside the desk?**
I've been reviewing AI companion robots for a while, and AIBI caught my attention for one specific reason: it's genuinely designed to go with you, not just sit on a desk.
It attaches magnetically to pretty much any surface — I've been thinking about how well it would work clipped in a car. Tiny, wearable (there's a necklace attachment), and it responds to voice commands, recognises your face, and adapts its mood based on your tone.
Quick rundown:
- ChatGPT-powered conversation, voice commands
- Rotating AI camera with face tracking
- Millimeter wave radar to detect your presence from a distance
- Emotional expressions via high-res IPS display
- Touch reactions — reacts differently depending on its mood
- Two AIBIs can chat with each other via NFC
- Battery: ~3 hours active use, charges in ~90 min via USB-C
- Magnetic mount — sticks to your desk, fridge, car dashboard...
But what I'm genuinely curious about — do you think a companion robot makes sense *outside* a home/desk setup? Car, commute, travel? Or is the portability angle just a marketing move and in practice it stays on the desk anyway?
Would love to hear from anyone who's actually used it on the go. 👇
