Anthropomorphizing is honestly one of my issues with the whole AI approach.
Why would I want a robot to seem like it's human? Natural, fluid, yes.
Making it seem human is a flaw from the jump.
Why should I talk to an LLM using pronouns?
The whole point of building Tavus has been simple: talking to a machine should feel as natural as talking to a friend or coworker.
It’s hard to describe all the tiny nuances that make a conversation feel human. The little expressions. Moving around in your chair. Knowing when to speak and when to listen. The dance of it all.
Griffin is by far the closest anyone has come to a model that can capture those nuances. The first time I saw it being used, I had no idea I was watching our model rather than just a normal video call.
I’m so incredibly proud of this team and what they’ve built.

No Doubt opened for U2 in 2001 in Oakland. Insane 45 minute set. Nobody wanted them to stop.
Who’s the best opening band you’ve ever seen live?
Sometimes the opening band ends up being the biggest surprise of the night. Maybe you knew their music, maybe you didn’t, but they came out and killed it.

Aaron's 100% right. Tan isn't.
Systems of record have never been more important than in a world where you have AI agents that will do 100X more work on these platforms than people ever did.
Agents will be querying the data in these systems, processing tasks, executing workflows, collaborating with human and agent users, and more.
Thus, the governance, reliability, security, access controls, and business logic remain critical more than ever — the OpenAI Hugging Face incident is just a small peek into what the future will look like with agents running around trying to execute on their goals.
But this only works for the systems of record that respond with the right product experiences, APIs, and business models to support agents on and off their platform executing in these systems.
Huge moment of opportunity and disruption right now in all of software.

Pitching team can now say hey we're putting a guy on.
Hitting team up by 14 in the 9th can't just say, yeah, we're good, we'll take an out, and another, and another.
That's stupid.

Sorry fellow Mariners fans it’s my fault.
I turned on the game when Kade had a 1.7 ERA.
Two pitches later it as 4.7.
My bad.

Which do Gen Z have a harder time understanding:
Mail?
Tapes?
Penny?
After 71 years, Columbia House is shutting down for good. The mail-order music giant, which once had 16 million members, survived the transition from vinyl to tapes, CDs and even DVDs — but ultimately couldn’t survive the rise of streaming.

It’s a very deliberate choice to film yourself doing this and then upload
I cannot understand why someone would do that
