I really thought it was a joke at first.

It is

it is a joke and you can buy it

one SKU more is really not that much overhead for keychron if you look at their catalog

I mean i think it still is a joke? but it might make some money for the humor of it.

I expected a Staples' button (giant red dome button) that said "Do it."

"That was easy"

Yes, the Easy Button's correct phrase is even better.

Already outdated with the permission buttons

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

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 ..

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.

The technology seems light years ahead of Keychron, definitely a game changer.

“Gaming controls”

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

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

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

It is a joke, and not a joke. It is absurd, and also real. It is satire, and also commentary. It is, as you say, pollution, and also no different from the pollution in both product and byproducts of the vibe coded output itself.

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.

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

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.

You can tell this is not SOTA because the “make no mistakes” button’s missing.

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 !?

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
