In plain words
Realtime Video Calls with ChatGPT is an iOS app that enables video conversations with an AI character named Annie. Annie, powered by ChatGPT, can assist as a tutor, engage in casual conversation, help users practice dialogue, check weather, and perform web searches. Her animated face responds in real-time with expressions and lip movements that match generated speech. Users can interrupt Annie if responses are too long or ask her to pause for thinking time. The app is designed for anyone seeking an interactive AI conversation partner.

Hi 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 trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Hi HN, Today we’re launching GPT-4 answers on Phind.com, a developer-focused search engine that uses generative AI to browse the web and answer technical questions, complete with code examples and detailed explanations. Unlike vanilla GPT-4, Phind feeds in relevant websites and technical documentation, reducing the model’s hallucination and keeping it up-to-date. To use it, simply enable the “Expert” toggle before doing a search. GPT-4 is making a night-and-day difference in terms of answer quality. For a question like “How can I RLHF a LLaMa model”, Phind in Expert mode delivers a…
