Tavus has unveiled a new family of AI models, including Phoenix-3, Raven-0, and Sparrow-0, designed to enhance real-time human interaction through advanced Conversational Video Interfaces (CVI). These models enable the creation of AI avatars that can engage in natural conversations, effectively merging AI capabilities with human-like interaction. Tavus's new demo persona, Charlie, showcases the emotional intelligence of these AI agents, marking a significant advancement in the field of artificial intelligence. The introduction of these models is expected to make AI interactions more accessible and realistic, raising questions about the authenticity of virtual conversations in platforms like Google Meet.
