Recently, a New York-based research lab and technology company Hume, has introduced what can be called the ‘first conversational AI with emotional intelligence’.
About Hume AI
- EVI is the world's first emotionally intelligent voice AI. It accepts live audio input and generates audio and transcripts with vocal expression measurements.
- EVI is powered by its proprietary empathic large language model (eLLM), which reportedly understands and emulates tones of voices and word emphasis to optimize human-AI conversations.
- EVI is trained on human reactions to optimize positive expressions like happiness and satisfaction. It will continue to learn from users' reactions.
- By processing the tune, rhythm and timing of speech, EVI can determine when to speak and produce a more empathetic language with the correct tone of voice.
What is a large language model?
- LLMs, or large language models, are a type of artificial intelligence (AI) program that can understand and generate human language.
- They are trained on vast amounts of text data, which gives them the ability to recognize and interpret human language patterns.
- LLMs are built using transformer models, a type of neural network architecture specifically designed for processing sequential data, like text.
- In short, LLMs are computer programs that have been "fed" enough examples of human language to become proficient at understanding and generating text.
