Sesame AI has introduced voice companions, Maya and Miles, that redefine human-AI interaction. Unlike existing models from OpenAI and Google, Sesame's technology creates a more natural and engaging conversation experience. The voice companions exhibit human-like qualities, such as emotional responsiveness and nuanced speech patterns, making interactions feel organic.
The technology behind Sesame's voice companions includes a Conversational Speech Model that processes speech in a way that mimics human conversation. This model is still in development, with plans for a full-duplex system and wearable technology that enhances user engagement. The innovative approach taken by Sesame sets a new standard in the AI voice assistant landscape.
