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.

Pretty weird to see "Hacker News" coming out of the gate strongly against what appears to be a fun, cheap, extensible little hardware accessory. This is hardly the first accessory keypad to ever be made, and it's neat to see the AI use case driving people to mess around and try some ideas in this space.

"Accept changes"? This is obviously aimed at entry level vibe coders.

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

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

I was thinking of hacking a Bluetooth ring with sleek buttons to do this, when I'm working with agents I wanted something right at hand to handle recording audio and sending inputs. 2 remapped keyboard keys and handy is my current good enough.

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.

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

Landfill fodder

The buttons are clearly wrong. They should come from factory with:

"Make it better"

"Add more bling"

"Nevermind, go on"

"Ship to production"

Absolutely silly.

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

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

I use my Stream Deck XL+ for this.

Have actually vibe coded a few "apps" for this. Most recent being a weather app that switches to radar view when I tap the knob and allows me to turn the forecast through time.

Now I need to go make the "make no mistakes" macro for fun!

“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.

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

Already outdated with the permission buttons

No tactile switches? Hard pass.

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.
