The whole point of building Tavus has been simple: talking to a machine should feel as natural as talking to a friend or coworker.

It’s hard to describe all the tiny nuances that make a conversation feel human. The little expressions. Moving around in your chair. Knowing when to speak and when to listen. The dance of it all.

Griffin is by far the closest anyone has come to a model that can capture those nuances. The first time I saw it being used, I had no idea I was watching our model rather than just a normal video call.

I’m so incredibly proud of this team and what they’ve built.

Playbit is an endeavor to build a new operating system for software creatives. After over two years of reserach, Playbit is now a real company and I'm hiring Playbit's founding engineers.

Are you up for the challenge?

@StokeyUpdates It's today, walked past it just now. Lots of people taking photos. We couldn't work out how they even did this, looks impossible for such a small car.
