Creating the perfect virtual assistant: a look at Heygen Labs' Interactive Avatar and its potential
.-?…?..
Chatted with the new Heygen Labs avatar today. It responds quite quickly, the answers are meaningful and the delay is 1–2 seconds.
Without any technical knowledge, with literally one or two clicks, you can create a database that the avatar will use to answer questions and maintain a dialogue. You can then link it to a Zoom call with a potential client or to the company’s corporate website.
What is needed to make it a fully-fledged working tool?
Firstly, integration with the new ChatGPT voice mode to eliminate the two-second delay.
The second is to allow access to edit the prompts behind the avatar’s back. This will keep their behaviour within the patterns you are interested in.
The third is to allow him to be proactive. Start a dialogue and ask questions yourself, and he becomes a manager instead of an assistant.
All three points are technically possible today, all you need is the goodwill of Heygen engineers and the ChatGPT voice mode API.
The day when you can send your digital twin on a work call is at an arm’s length.? ?_______________
