Azi contemplates the world

Azi likes to watch the world by the window.

Engineered Arts desktop robots feature 32 actuators, 27 for facial control alone, and 5 for the neck.
They include AI conversational ability including GPT-4o support which makes them great robotic companions, even to each others.

Azi here is following a script for this video to demonstrates its movements range and facial expressions, using one of its many voices.

Can hold a conversation better than 90% of tinder dates

He's got that American passive-aggressive sarcasm to go with his American accent.
World's first passive-aggressive robot.

It is quite impressive that the generative model running this bot seems so human and so proper! Things have quite improved since the latter years!

"The intrincate ballet"... That's ChatGPT.

Ameca and Azi
I am one of your fans😅
Well now both are more like humans ☠️ then I ever expected them to be

Can anyone explain to me why we are trying to make them look humanlike?

È bellissimo vedere crescere un progetto così interessante! E le espressioni facciali sono cosí umane, sembrano quasi consapevoli😮 bellissimo! Sarà il futuro e avrete un grande successo!❤

[loriga]

it's impressive, it was emotional it seemed like yesterday, when Ameca woke up, now she has a good partner Azi. The final, the achus made you laugh.

If humanoid robots' facial expressions become more subtle than those of humans, humans may look like robots!

[Cynical]

That's actually really cool, excited to see where it goes from there.

Well now! Azi looks really dapper in a scarf. 💖

What does this thing use? A neural network?

"He looks out the window more than at the person, which means he's waiting for his prey. 🤣🤣🤣"

[bruceyoung]

Love it. Can’t wait for more conversations

[CyberSyntek]

Love it! He reminds me a bit of Hanson Robotics's abandoned "Hans" model. I loved that bot. 👏

In the end of the vidéo you can hear the sound of the motor...it s noisy 😮

even tho the things azi was saying is scripted here, the ability for ai's to hold 2 way non scripted conversations is very real, gpt 4, claude 3, lamda, and other chat bots including on the character ai site are very good examples of this, but im not sure if they've put that technology into ones like ago and ameca yet, because a lot of the tech for robots like ameca and azi have gone into facial expressions instead, but im presuming eventually they will incorporate the advanced chatbot capabilities into these robots like api and ameca, and thays when things will be more blade-runner like

[CommonTater]

does it have cameras? any sort of computer vision?

Hey, I’m wondering how to get into the telepresence because I don’t have an Engineered Arts login.
