8 KHz sample rate? I'm sure this was good enough in August, but we have Opus 5.5 now. I suppose it could be enough for use with low effort.

I really thought it was a joke at first.

for anybody doubting the value of these, they're making international headlines: https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/business/tech-science/20261101/...

you don't need to buy one, but keychron's going to be ready for the next ai company that goes looking for a promo product supplier

Need one that mixes it with a stream deck (e.g. lights up when a session is ready for input). You could even have that as one dedicated button with press to shuffle sessions. Would make a slightly larger version (keypad or in-between the two) more valuable

Who approves or rejects? You just ask for a change ..

Selling an old, unfunny joke for $35.00. Functionally this is entirely useless. Who is this for? You'd be much better off with a keyboard that fits in your pocket-- that's what I use, lol

Reminds me of the 3-keyboard from Waveshare, but I guess this device right here has something to do with AI !?

This is a really lazy implementation of this idea.

I briefly considered making one of these for my electronics company https://store.n8ech.com, but found that there are plenty of available options like the AhaKey https://finalkeystudio.com/products/finalkey-x-ahakey-x1-vib... out of I think the Philippines.

This one is going to be a pass.

Remember that meme with the giant plush Enter key? Yeah, it's real now.

“Gaming controls”

“Customize each key for macros, keyboard inputs, gaming controls, or shortcuts through Keychron Launcher for faster, more efficient control.”

These things started popping up. I think I saw the other day a microphone that had some buttons for Claude code.

Landfill fodder

Already outdated with the permission buttons

They could have something better like the work louder equivalent (Creator Micro V2). Fun fact: before buying work louder I bought the keychron K0 Max (since I own the keychron k3 max) but couldnt really use it with my claude code (no native integration what`s so ever). Also there`s no set of keycaps so that I can fully customize it.

This is pointless, because it is too easy to press wrong key.

I understand the novelty factor, but this product just creates pollution.
