Show HN: Realtime Video Calls with ChatGPT
callannie.aiHi everyone, I've been working with a few friends on this app that lets you do real-time video chats with your new best AI friend named Annie.
We just released the first version for iOS, you can find the download link on https://callannie.ai
You can find a video demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MV2mjjQFSU
Annie can help as a tutor on any topic, chat about your day, or help you practice any conversation. She can also check the weather and perform basic web searches.
The original image of Annie's face was generated with Midjourney, and her expressions and lip movements are animated on-device in real-time to match the generated speech. Right now, the content of what she says is generated by ChatGPT.
If Annie's answers are too long, you can interrupt her. If you need her to pause so you can think, say "hold on." You can say “can you search the web” to trigger web search mode (this is also available in the conversation menu).
Hope you enjoy speaking with Annie! Let us know what you think in the comments I'm surprised this doesn't get more traction on HN. The implementation is much more responsive than I'd anticipated. Are the answers GPT3.5? For your entertainment, ask a question in another language, it will actually understand and respond in said language, but pronounces every word as a native English speaker (e.g. Parlez-vous français ou italien) yes, it's based on gpt3.5.. thanks! Just tried on my iPad - amazing product! For some reason no face shows up, just black background (but voice works amazingly well). Direct App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/call-annie/id6447928709 ipad model? We have requirement on the apple chip generation of the iphone 12 This is fantastic. Great work. Works well on my iPad but no ‘face’ just a blank screen. Crashes on my M1 Mac Air. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help debug. I just tried it. It is surprisingly good, especially the accuracy of the speech to text, is it based on openAI's model Whisper? Looks really nice. How did you animate the face? Quite impressive, useful when I'm thinking out loud. nice! thanks. do you prefer the face video mode, or just audio for that?
