Matt Wolfe demos a new multimodal AI from Thinking Machines Labs, founded by Mira Murati after she left OpenAI. The model sees and hears you, translates speech in real time, knows when to interrupt, and integrates web search.
Well, this new model from Thinking Machines Labs came out with these demos, and well, I'm actually impressed once again. Now, before I show off some of the demos, if you're not familiar with Thinking Machine Labs, this is the company that was founded by Mira Murati. Now, Mira Murati was the CTO of OpenAI back when Sam Altman was fired for like a weekend. Mira Murati was the interim CEO for like a day or two. Obviously, Sam Altman came back, and then a few months later, Mira left OpenAI to start Thinking Machine Labs, and the demos they shared Again, pretty cool.
So we're giving an announcement today and I've got two of my friends coming to help. Every time one of them enters the frame, I need you to say friend.
Got it. I'll say friend whenever one of them walks in. Friend.
It'll actually translate in real time. So as somebody is speaking in one language, it will translate into another language and just sort of speak over them instead of waiting for them to finish.
Aaj ham amare preview model ko kijana.
Today we're taking a look at our preview model. To release it, which makes conversation between humans and AI easier. It has many features like web search and artifacts.
The model can both see you and hear you, and it has no problem actually interrupting you when necessary, but also not interrupting you when you just take a break from speaking for a second. If you have some time and you want to see more of the demos, again, it'll be linked up below because I think these demos are actually worth watching. It actually feels like something novel in the AI world, which I haven't felt like we've gotten in quite some time now.
