ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot, gets a face and a voice thanks to the new app chat.D-ID from startup D-ID. Previously, a team from Israel already managed to turn heads by developing Deep Nostalgia technology, which brings old photos to life.
D-ID introduced realistic text-to-video technology that transforms ChatGPT neural network responses into human speech.
The startup’s founder, Gil Perry, believes his app opens up new opportunities for interacting with artificial intelligence. In particular, with chat.D-ID, chatbots will be able to be used by people with low vision and those who cannot read or write at all. Plus, Perry says, a realistic avatar that can talk could draw the attention of human communication advocates to the technology.
chat.D-ID works in a browser and can be accessed from both a phone and a computer. The application interface is quite simple: the user is asked to enter or say a request, which will be answered by Alice’s avatar, made in the form of a red-haired girl.
At the moment, the app is still in beta testing, so communication with Alice, for example, is only possible in English. It is planned that in the future users will be able to upload their photos to generate avatars from them.
