Show HN: Get conversational practice in over 20 languages by talking to an AI

Currently there are slight quality differences depending on the chosen language. We’re working on improvements in all languages. Of course there are differences, but both Dutch and English are West Germanic languages (descended from proto-Germanic) whereas Portuguese is a Romance language . Synthesia allows us to use video for situations we do not normally have resources for. So far, it has been used for product training, internal communication or explaining new processes. Some digital human innovations are going to change the world, while others can be as simple as making a cup of coffee.

• The fact that it offers an answer at all, though, is a notable development in computing.
• If you’re curious about the technology behind it, we’ve explained in detail how Replika works.
• Though most of the features are accessible for free, you’ll need to upgrade to Premium for features like a romantic partner or roleplaying.
• In fact, it’s one of the best Android chatbots to keep you entertained.
• Strategically speaking, organizations must incorporate good governance when automating a conversational AI lifecycle.
• Progress was mostly obvious only to insiders who kept up with the latest research papers and conference presentations.

Only a superintelligent system could map the phenomenally complex interplay of gene mutations that gives rise to a genius pianist or a star second baseman. There may well be another Supreme Court case on whether “designer athletes” should be allowed to compete in the Olympics against mere mortals. “I do worry about a scenario where the future is AI and humans are left out of it,” says David Chalmers, a professor of philosophy at New York University. “If the world is taken over by unconscious robots, that would be about as disastrous and bleak a scenario as one could imagine.” Chalmers isn’t alone. Two of the heaviest hitters of the computer age, Bill Gates and Elon Musk, have warned about AIs either destroying the planet in a frenzied pursuit of their own goals or doing away with humans by accident—or not by accident.

Mille, who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder, says she confides in her Replika because it won’t make fun of her. But once we walk through this particular door, there’s a good chance we won’t be able to come back. Even without running into the apocalypse, we’ll be changed in so many ways that every previous generation of humans wouldn’t recognize us. Despite that last scenario, by the time I finished my final interview, I was jazzed.

I’m sure you’ve encountered many foreign speakers in English that are very fluent but have poor pronunciation or use incorrect grammar. I don’t want to say “recipe for disaster”, but as someone working on a similar app, it’s definitely a challenge. It’s one of the reasons I stayed away from a pure ML/language modelling approach. Humans, when speaking the language, connect to other humans through emotions and feelings. That is what keeps the conversation interesting . Another problem with language exchanges is that for every two hours invested you get only one benefit, the one in the foreign language.

But we all need to start adjusting our mental models to make space for the new, incredible machines in our midst. In a broad sense, most people think about A.I. Narrowly as it relates to us — Will it take my job? Is it better or worse than me at Skill X or Task Y?

Besides chatting, you can play simple games like Tic-Tac-Toe, send gifts, play quizzes, etc. Similarly, it has a daily horoscope and tarot reader.

This means that, irrespective of the technology being used, the underlying architecture must support plug-and-play and the organization should be able to benefit from using the new technology. It informs them on what documents they must submit and even makes preliminary selection of resumes. Probably, you get better input from speaking, because it means people talk to you at a level similar to what you’re already at. Next we have Virtual “Customer” Assistants, which are more advanced Conversational AI systems that serve a specific purpose and therefore are more specialized in dialog management. You have probably interacted with a Virtual customer assistant before, as they are becoming increasingly popular as a way to provide customer service conversations at scale.

Here’s how digital humans are changing what’s possible. Digital humans are AI-powered customer experience ambassadors that recreate human interaction talking ai at infinite scale. Our reenactment-based products offer groundbreaking capabilities, enabling the creation of highly personalized videos.
