Sesame’s new AI voice model features uncanny imperfections, and it’s willing to act like an angry boss.

    If your AI is craving peanut butter and pickle sandwiches, it may be pregnant. ;)

    I looked into this a bit more and here’s a quick video of someone testing out the demo that they have online:

    Woah, that’s crazy. It’s instantly responsive. I wonder which LLM is feeding it. It must cost a fortune to run for free.

    Interesting.

    Now if they plugged this into an intelligent agent powered by expert systems instead of a conversational parrot we might start to have actual futuristic AI applications.
