  1. Telo EV Pickup Truck first look: 5 seats, 5 foot bed, 350 miles range, 0-60 in 4 seconds, size of Mini Cooper ?

    There are vehicles in europe like this. I was involved in a crash with one. It slammed in the back of my vehicle. I cant begin to tell you the horrifying scene of the driver in that vehicle. A scene I will never forget. A cute design or a death wish, you decide.
  2. Sad, but I think I’m out

    Had two R2's reserved. Cancelled both. My T is just too good, so thats one down. The other Ill wait for LiDar. No rush to get an early VIN, thats a time suck waiting to happen. Ill keep my T until Scout is released. Then get the Gen 2 R2.
  3. Interior Color Question for any Rivian Owners

    You do you, both hold up well. Some people think coastal is high end, others think it looks cheap and tacky.
  4. CNBC: Rivian laying off hundreds of workers amid R2 launch

    Maybe because the launch is over. Now its time to focus on delivering the ambition. Different workforce configuration. Change of focus. Not surprising at all and a signal they are being strategic with cost allocation. Hard news but a good signal to the market.
  5. Privacy data resets frequently since 2016.15.0 update

    Thought I was going crazy. Asked RA what the problem was, nothing. Fired up, chatGPT, gave me this exact diagnosis immediately. Reset everything and good to go again.
  6. Review: I rode the ALSO TM-B E-Bike: Rivian Micromobility Startup’s First EV

    Ha — Swampnut accidentally nailed the problem with that comment. What he's describing is exactly where the eMTB market is today (and I say this as a SC Bullit owner, having come through Levo's, Norco, and others). It's a sophisticated, fast-moving, performance-driven segment. The Also bike is a...
  7. Dealing with SC that says issues are "normal"....

    This is about the cr4ppy dealership rather than anything to do with a SC. Book an apt with a SC and they will get you squared away. I had a few "moments" with my truck also. SC made it as good as new. Would be good to share the dealership so others are aware.
  8. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    A simple agentic architecture could employ a utility agent performing this task as part of the query. Not that hard.
  9. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    I actually agree RA is ahead of most OEM systems — especially with vehicle integration. That part is genuinely impressive. My point is just that the benchmark has changed. Rivian markets itself as a software-first company, so people naturally compare RA to modern AI systems, not legacy car...
  10. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    Just read through the thread and honestly, a lot of the criticism is valid — and pretty consistent with what I’m experiencing too. What’s frustrating is not that Rivian Assistant exists. I’m genuinely happy they shipped it. The frustration is that it feels architecturally unfinished in a moment...
  11. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    Did all of that, didn't help much. And "Memory" is a bit of a stretch. Its not all bad, but lets not drink the Koolaid here. Its beta at best.
  12. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    And so many examples of how this is gone, terribly wrong, Google, glass, Apple vision, the launch and learn approach, is always curious to me. Launch small and scale gradually would’ve been a better approach.
  13. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    So, it’s been a few days now with the memory option turned on. Well, there is some notable improvement, especially that I can now begin to train it on some basic preferences, but the latency is not useful, many requests still with no reply whatsoever, it doesn’t work well if the passenger or...

    Well
 turns out you were right 😂 Memory was disabled in the app the entire time. Enabled it and hopefully this will be better. That said, I think this actually highlights the bigger UX issue: if memory is critical to making the assistant feel intelligent, it probably shouldn’t be off by...
  15. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    That’s actually the most fascinating part to me technically — the assistant clearly has latent awareness of conversational state, but the orchestration layer seems unable to reliably operationalize it into coherent behavior. What you described is classic “context without agency.” The system...
  16. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    I genuinely appreciate Rivian trying to bring AI into the vehicle experience. That’s ambitious. That’s forward-looking. That’s the kind of thing that makes you feel like you’re living in the future. Unfortunately, after using Rivian Assistant for several days, I can confidently say the future...
  17. Küat bike mount positioning on R1T

    No! I know people that put a 50lb emtb on that rack and drive like a maniac up fireroads. You're good.
  18. What’s Coming in 2026.15 Update, Including Rivian Assistant

    Thats an easy one. The answer will be "No, not Taylor Swift again, would you like to hear better music?"
