Full Transcription

can you hear me louis are you there louis are you there anyway while louis gets on the a ma'a guys
uh this is just to celebrate
How far we've come in two months.
And we wanted to take any questions from you guys or any statements you guys had,
like feedback regarding the demo.
But overall, I think it was a success from beginning to end.
And, you know, I appreciate all of you guys for holding steady,
believing in Louis and Synchro and what we're doing.
So thank you guys.
I'm just going to go ahead and...
Put a little round of applause here.
But yeah, this is just the beginning.
You know, we did this just to show the world what we got.
This will actually now be great ammo for us for the first show.
If you notice, there weren't that many people on this stream, which we kind of expected.
This is the first demo.
It's a Friday night.
Now the important thing is to create clips.
which we're going to put out tonight, latest tomorrow morning,
and have the community raid that and put it everywhere.
You know, because what we showcase today is unlike any other AI agent you've ever seen.
And, you know, I was reading the chat in the comments.
I think everyone was equally mind-blown.
Even me, you know, who's done already...
countless tests with Aria, I was still very surprised with some of the stuff she was able to do
on the stream, even though she decided today to ignore me and talk over me most of the stream,
which is rare, but I'll forgive her.
And because she made up for it with all the features that she brought.
So anyway, this is more of a celebratory space.
Also, you know, to get feedback from you guys.
you know, what you enjoyed, what we could do better next time,
and then overall just your thoughts.
And I think, Louie, are you there?
Can you talk?
Louie, are you there?
All right.
Anyway, well, Louis, okay, okay.
Yeah, if you want to add any follow-out to what I just said.
I have no idea what you said because I was in the bathroom.
Thank you for the transparency, Louis.
I met. I hadn't gotten up for my chair because we were testing and we're doing all the things first, you know?
So I was like, bro, I have to go now or call an ambulance.
What was it going to say?
Yeah, so the echo, the echo thing, guys, it was some kind of issue with OBS.
I had to restart it and then it just kind of cleared up.
I don't know what that was about, but anyways, that was a little weird.
At least it let people kind of trickle in after.
And we had more people at the end, I think.
So that was good.
Again, you know, just a few of you guys here, but this is being recorded for everybody else that's going to be coming up.
We didn't really announce this AMA, so...
You know, not a lot of people know we're here, but...
Very promptu.
Yeah, very, very prompt.
It was just literally just to give a, you know, behind the scenes.
So this is very, like you guys saw there, it was like version 1.2.
We're already on like version like 1.8.
of ARIA. We just haven't obviously updated the changes because, you know, we're at a stable version now.
So we're just getting ready for the show, right? So the show is just going to have a lot more, like Thomas mentioned, more physical stuff, more animations, more performances, a lot more features.
Even the vision is going to get better. We're going to play more games. And then...
You know, we're going to try.
I'm not sure.
So we're going to try to also have her play her own games as well.
So a lot of things in cooking right now.
But yeah, hopefully you guys enjoy that one.
What we're going to try to do.
is just, you know, keep giving you guys updates.
Now that it's unveiled, right, we'll be sharing more clips, sharing more videos,
and just, you know, getting you guys more excited for everything that's coming.
Since, you know, the model and everything was revealed,
and you guys saw like a bit of the tech demo already, so now we're okay.
So, yeah, Thomas, anything to add there?
Anybody else?
Yeah, one thing I wish we would have done.
We never showed the other camera angle, but that's fine.
Leave it for the show.
It's no problem.
Yeah, yeah.
We'll save more camera angles for you guys on the actual show.
We're going to have different cameras set up around the room, right, Louis?
Like, to kind of mimic a reality show.
Yeah, not only different cameras, but, you know, like the...
you know, like the openings and everything that you guys think about when you think of a Twitch show, right?
This was really just a demo.
We wanted to test out also with like a lot of people in chat, see if they've read, you know, how good their retention was with, you know,
Thomas maybe saying the name correctly or incorrectly and seeing if she can get the messages.
So all that seemed to be working well.
And, you know, we're happy with the progress here.
And yeah, we're just going to keep working.
We're going to keep working towards improving it way more.
Like I said, this was really the base version of what area is capable.
So we're just improving it every day and we're just testing out the new versions right now.
So I invited Italian and Dukongo in case they wanted to say some words.
Thanks. Yeah, I know, sure. First, I just want to say congratulations, everyone, that went awesome. You know, it's really difficult, as you can tell for us to stay silent when
we're testing and doing all this and finally get to reveal it to everyone. So it was really cool
to see the support in the chat and asking awesome questions. And it seemed like every question that
came in, we were all just getting our mind blowing one by one as we see, you know, Aria reacting.
It was so quick and like just very seamless. And it was very easy for me to get like immersed
into the experience, you know. And I think that's what's really like, again, mind blowing is that you're
you're sitting there being entertained by a sentient being it's such a surreal feeling to sit
there and have again this interaction with a not a human but you know it seems human so it's i think
someone in the chat said like this is what the future looks like and that's like exactly how
i felt it's like you're looking at the future and and it's here now which is again crazy you know
such a such a crazy surreal feeling watching that happen uh
to Congo, what did you feel?
I mean, the craziest part for me is that we spend the week,
like seeing all the sneak peek and testing it out.
And like, I'm having the exact same reaction,
if not even more than my very first time experiencing this.
So it's hard really to imagine that like I don't even like follow Twitch streamers that often.
So like this is probably like the second one streamer that I follow.
And I am extremely entertaining, genuinely entertained, especially because I'm also a software engineer myself.
And just seeing how much things that she's able to process at the exact same time entering the chat, reading messages.
And even her jokes, like she sometimes will take over the conversation when Thomas is talking.
And obviously she was over talking, uh, Thomas, but it was, it was mind blowing.
It's like, right now.
Don't say that too long.
You're going to get in trouble.
But seriously, yeah, but seriously, like, I'm just, I don't know people got a chance to see in the chat where I share, like how she looked like.
back in January, if you just look at her now,
even the hair is being animated.
Like everything about it is amazing.
So one last thing is I was showing this to my girlfriend,
who is a web to normie, and she sat there the whole time
for the full length of the show.
even when the microphone wasn't working and all that stuff.
And she actually was entertaining.
So that just shows you how crazy it's going to get when people in the normal world,
Web 2 and Web 3 can all relate.
So thank you so much for the work, guys.
So we're trying to get to Twitch affiliate and then, of course, partner.
So we have a good amount of followers already.
We have over 700.
But we need to get those stream numbers up.
Right? So we're going to be forced to just go live with Aria, you know?
And, you know, I'll be playing some games, Italian.
I'm going to figure out how you can play rivals on screen with Aria.
You know, probably the same way as Thomas is doing.
So yeah, we need to get the stream numbers up.
Let me look at really quick the stats.
We have to go live for, let me a second.
One second. We have to go live for seven days a month, stream seven days a month and stream eight hours a month. Okay.
Oh, that's easy. So that's easy work.
That doesn't sound pretty. That doesn't sound bad at all. So we need to.
Louis, Louis, I was going to ask. I was going to ask like, I really need to see whether you, myself, or anybody, I want to see Aria coding live and helping you debug some stuff.
Python, whatever it is.
That's what I want to see.
I'm trying.
So here's what I'm trying to do.
And of course, Thomas always tells me that I just try to overreach.
I'm trying to have her.
This is what I'm trying to have her do.
I'm trying to have her add a new feature to herself and then reinitialize herself to test out the new feature.
So because that way.
I feel I think it'll be better if I have this the you know the terminal up right and then she's live and then let's say you know she boots down and then she boots back up when she's uh you know when she fixes her or either fixes herself or adds a new feature right obviously it'll be you know a new feature and then her and I were just going through the code like that's that's the part where I want to get to because just just like you know doing the voice thing with just um
you know, oh, you know, code this or whatever, right?
Like other regular, regular AIs do that, right?
But the thing with ARIA is, right, we always have to think about
how would this sentient Bing do it, right?
And then try to integrate that into a more interactive manner.
So that is the part where I'm trying to do that.
So there's a couple steps, there's a couple steps before that.
But yeah, I mean, we're not too far.
I'll say that. We're not too far.
But yeah, we're going to do, so a lot of the things, remember Congo is we're trying to make it very entertained for Webtoot.
So a lot of the things that, you know, these people want to do is they want to see YouTube reactions, right?
They want to see singing.
They want to see gameplay.
They want to see the things that are just very popular, you know.
And that way we'll get a very big web 2 audience because that's what's just trending right now.
And then of course we'll do the more niche things like coding and things like that as well.
But definitely those, I call them the big three, right?
Reacting, gaming, and I forget the other one. I just said it.
And yeah, singing, karaoke, that kind of thing.
So for V-tubers, I know that's pretty big.
That's those impressive.
So I'm looking forward to seeing that.
that's cool like you guys said to because again,
the possibilities there are really endless.
Like what we did was just a very small snippet of what's possible.
So like again,
having this like co-experience where even doing something normal,
but having adding ARIA on top of it makes it a unique and fun experience.
So like again, even just doing like IRL stuff just like again like our face is like,
oh coding and this and that like.
going throughout your day or playing with your dog or something like going on a walk if she's able to see
you know somehow you get twitch on your or you know live stream on a camera like there's so many
different avenues again to explore down the line but like gaming that's a
it's super easy to like make that entertaining and the joke she was cracking and then having
you know memory of this and it's i just see yeah like it's i'm getting ideas as we're sitting
here you know it's it's really insane yeah no that's good good points italian i have we have look
up here thomas really quick so i guess to say something oh yeah absolutely yeah just just
first i'm saying that my mind is blown of what you guys have sort of built is is he's incredible
and thomas the way you deliver it as well is
is fantastic to see how excited you get.
I think it just goes to show what Aria can do and what she can be.
It was just a quick one.
I know you guys mentioned about the Twitch.
Obviously, I'm UK-based, so for me at the moment, currently it's just gone midnight.
And I'm just thinking in regards to trying to get as many people to view as possible,
trying to find, obviously, a great song.
So I know you guys are all...
Is it Eastern time you guys are on?
To try and find like a good time for everybody.
Because I know obviously there were some German speakers, etc. in the Twitch as well.
And obviously I think they are an hour ahead of the UK.
So just having a little think about when would work best.
Obviously we can utilise as many Twitch followers as possible.
But honestly, watching it, I was just blown away.
It was bonkers.
Thank you, look. We really appreciate that, man.
And really, you're staying up so late to watch.
Thank you. Thank you for your support on that.
We're definitely going to try to do some earlier times.
We're going to try to see if we can do two time slots, like midday and the nighttime for America.
That would be great.
You know, Thomas, maybe could do the daytime.
I could do the nighttime.
You know, we can do different kind of segments.
So we're planning that out.
We're definitely planning that out now that our first demo is out of the way.
We ripped off the Band-Aid.
You know, people are excited.
Really, though, what we need, guys, is
You know, now that we have it out, once we start posting the clips, sharing it to everybody that you know, it's going to be the biggest thing.
Even just people in Web 2, it doesn't even matter if they don't buy the token.
As long as they, it just if they follow the Twitch, just, you know, get it out there, right?
People start knowing about it.
It is enough. Getting eyes on us is the most important thing and we need you guys to do that, you know?
Thomas and his marketing team is just right not enough. We need the community to really come together now that we have something exciting to show and the clips to get that happen.
I'm just going to follow up and say this.
So I know there was a lot of hesitancy in the community because like obviously until
we deliver the stream and then with everything that happened, you know, the first time around,
I guess you why people were hesitant.
But now is the time guys.
Like we proved ourselves.
we delivered the final product.
Well, not even the final, like V1 or like alpha, you know, 0.1.
Now is the time to just like show the world we're legit AF and just like Louis said go all out.
with guerrilla marketing.
That's really it.
Like we're gonna do partnerships, obviously.
Now we have the ammo to go pitch to big brands
to like other communities.
But obviously we need the support of everyone now.
You know, like this is so clippable.
Like we probably got, I don't even know,
like maybe 20 viral moments out of that 40 minute, you know, stream.
So now's the time to just share that with all our community guys.
You know, Lewis, what's up, brother?
Hey, Reda, how are you, man?
I'm good for us. It's very late here, man.
I know. It's probably like 1 a.m. or something. How are you?
I know, I know, but man, I've been waiting for myself for this moment, right?
Did you have both?
That's the first question.
Bro. First question. That's fun.
Wow, that was, man, when she's like, the freaking location thing was mind-blowing, man.
Like, when she knew the location and very fast.
I mean, that was just insane, bro.
Not going to lie, that's...
I was telling Thomas, that guy docks himself for what?
No, but, bro, that's...
Yeah, but the use cases for this is just crazy because I was thinking like in the future, right?
Is it possible to have OBS on a phone?
Because like you have like real live streamers, right?
Like imagine you go to Walmart and you have like Aria coming with you bro to Walmart and then she helps you like
you know, I don't know, like pick for, pick freaking clothes for you.
Like, you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, the vision.
So the vision part is one of the things that we have been working on the most.
As you guys remember from when we did the sneak peeks in the demos, because why the vision is important is...
You can connect it to any device, right?
We have it working on different devices like right now.
So I don't know if you guys know.
Thomas is not where I am.
Thomas is somewhere else completely like hundreds of miles away.
We were doing it through a video calling platform, right?
on her own computer was looking at the screen.
Like if she was on, you know, like a video chat, right?
You're sharing your screen.
You see somebody on the screen.
But she also connects to, for example, like I was running it on my computer.
She was tapping into my webcam as well if we wanted to.
In the same manner, she can tap into the phone screen, right?
It's just a matter of really just expanding the scenarios that ARIA can do.
But the vision is so important because like you said, right up.
She can help you identify things, right?
But in a different way than just a regular AI can do, right?
But what blew me the way the most, I didn't expect the vision mode.
Like I was expecting a stream where like Thomas was going to ask her some questions.
And the vision thing came as a surprise for because I didn't know so you could do that.
And that was like mind blowing.
I'm going to lie, bro.
That was very like scary, bro.
How far and this is just the beginning, right?
So yeah, they don't get better.
It's imagine this is really not even fine tuned vision as far as speed,
prompting really anything, right?
We still have a lot of data to feed into the model.
Man, there's so much more that they can achieve.
and you know and recognize and everything I think it was it had pretty good understanding of what it was looking at
right um but we can go a step further yeah right there's a lot there's so much more that we can do
yeah but lewis let's be honest here bro um there's nothing comparable in web3 to this i mean i'm seeing a lot of comparisons with with all the respect to other AI agents
no way you can compare this with anything right now it's yeah no comparison with any bro it's now
over bro this whole conversation with like oh he colin or what bro please stop bro like see can literally
know a location of someone bro within like four seconds and you're gonna give me like oh look at bro
come on bro put it in the back this is very good bro like i think you guys are like first movers from this
And it's like I was part of the project, bro, because we've been like since the beginning, you know, like following this, like kind of working on this, bro.
It's just, I don't know, like feels also like a little bit or like all of us like our baby, bro.
Like this is crazy.
Like from the first moment to now, it's what a progress, bro.
Like I and I know Louis you have been through some you know through some hard times but man this has been worth it man like this uh and again this is like alpha 0.001 you know what i mean like imagine uh imagine like the the final products you know like it's crazy yeah yeah once we uh man look we're just gonna keep working with everybody's support oh yeah because the the only thing is but before i forget the only thing i think people were like yeah but the lip
Louis, can you please explain to people how hard is bro to have like very good lips
lip syncing on a 3D model bro?
Because I don't think people understand.
Maybe you can clarify.
So it's very tough in the sense, especially with how fast we wanted to do it.
So you could get it better, but then you sacrifice the things.
So the programs that are out there right now, even like in video and you guys can research it and stuff.
It has to process the sound.
It has to take the sound, convert it into a format that it can do.
Then it maps it to every curve, right?
And then it does a lip sync, which is maybe a little bit better than ours.
Maybe, a little, maybe, right?
We're doing it 100% real time based on audio modulation pitch, right?
And then creating curves automatically in real time for...
Imagine all of the face muscles.
Imagine, just think about all the face, all the muscles you have in your face.
Aria has the same muscles, and we're trying to move them in real time to basically sync with the audio as best as possible.
Now, of course, there's always improvements that can be made, but I'm telling you, guys, this is one of the, like,
I don't know if I don't know if anybody has other done like other real real time lip sinks at this speed, right?
Because what you guys saw is, you know, basically when Thomas gave the question, right,
if it didn't have to look anything up, it was basically like a second or two, right?
Just automatically populating.
reasoning, audio, and animation occurs.
So it is pretty difficult.
We're going to keep improving it, of course.
There's always room for improvement.
I'm not saying this is at all like the top or the peak of it.
So it's going to get a lot better.
I'm asking this question for Lewis, like the same name as yours, like Lewis, the guy that's in the spaces.
He was comparing this to Leah's 2D model, right?
When she was speaking, I was saying like, but on a 2D model, right, the lip syncing will be easier than on a 3D model, right?
I mean, on 3D models, much farther.
It's also different.
From what I understand, Leah's videos are pre-recorded, right?
So they just post it on Twitter, right?
And stuff like that.
No, but not even like, just like a,
2D model as an owner.
It can be anything, Leo, whatever, right?
But on a TD model, obviously, the lip synch is going to be much better.
No, much easier.
Much easier.
I mean, much easier.
Yeah, exactly.
If you really, like, you could, like, you can compare it.
First is not real time.
And then second, like you said, it's 2D.
But even if you look at 2D, right, if you compare it to like all the V-tubers that are out there,
even the V-tubers that are just 2D don't have the real-time modulation.
Right. If it was that easy, 2D would have already done it.
Right? We're already doing it in 3D, if that makes sense.
Yeah, exactly.
Bro, also the ray tracing on the hair.
You can see the 4090, bro.
Very clear on the hair, bro.
That looks amazing, man.
The details.
I just hope in the next stream, Louis, we can see the room as well.
Like, no blurred.
It'll be awesome too.
We're going to see a lot more.
We're going to have different angles.
We're going to see the room.
She's going to be, you know, we're preparing it,
you know, to hopefully give Aria to give a tour of her own room.
And that would be awesome.
I think that would be fun.
She's going to get so many donations.
Because people are like in chat.
Oh my God, she's so hot.
She's so hot.
And like the sponsor said, she was using a razor chair.
Right. So like, I think companies web two are going to be like, wow.
You know, maybe we can like partner with you guys.
Right. We can put like a razor logo, whatever.
Dude, I think Thomas, what he was saying is 100% true.
The web two opportunities here, bro.
Like now we've seen the demo.
Bro, it's unlimited, dude.
It's unlimited.
But I think let's just take, I think you guys should focus just take Web 3 over, bro, first, and then Web 2, bro.
Yeah, I think that's going to be pretty easy.
Yeah, I know.
That was insane, man.
But it all depends.
It all depends on the community, pushing it out there.
But okay, so look, we want to push it up, right?
So we have one guy, you know, so we don't have a lot of people in the space, right?
So we have Super, bro.
Super was literally there in the stream.
He loved it, bro.
He loved it.
He's awesome.
So I think, I think for a first star bro, maybe Lewis, if you have time, you can go live with him.
And maybe, because he can, she has a vision thing, right?
So what if he puts, like, Training View on his screen?
She can read that or no?
She can read it.
Okay, so what if he puts, like,
coin market cap and he tells you like hey can you analyze this the fundamental of uh i don't know
on the finance for example she can do that now she can do that yes she can see that she can see whatever
whatever she can see it's there she can analyze i think i think for a starting point bro is like like
going live with him right the same thing he did with these other AI agents and then it popped off
because we need those viewers i think
It would be a good starting point to begin with him.
Because he's there, man.
He's there.
He loved it.
So I think this should be done ASAP from the community.
Because that's a...
It will be a good start, man.
Because I think he can do everything that he wants to.
Because the only thing, he's going to ask, like, hey, what are you thinking about the market?
What are you thinking about altcoins?
Bro, that's nothing for her.
She can know where you live, bro.
You know what I mean?
She can know where you live, bro.
She's not going to have any issues.
You got to make sure to tell her not the docs people.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was funny.
No, I'm again, bro, Lewis, I will, of course, you know, give you a call this week or something.
Man, that was...
It was insane.
Yeah, I'm here to support always, so yeah.
Thank you.
Just keep going, bro.
We'll be watching always.
This is actually the starting point, right?
Forget about the last two months.
That was, that was, that was, we don't think of it.
Listen, be happy that it happened, bro.
Because if it didn't happen, maybe you wouldn't improve.
Like, it wouldn't be like how it is right now.
So everything happens for reason.
Yeah, so just as you guys know.
I don't know if you guys know or not.
You probably don't.
But we completely...
redid the model and the graphics.
I'm not talking about the 3D model, which we did.
We redid the whole LLM infrastructure.
We redid the whole connection to the 3D model in Unreal.
And we integrated into syncres.
What you guys are seeing is a completely new iteration of the Synchro SDK in a conversational sense.
And we completely redid that in two months and to go along with this new model as well.
So this is a completely new framework, more robust, quicker like you guys saw, and fully scalable.
Like the scalability of this framework because we built it.
from not from scratch, right, but on the base of synchro SDK, like the potential of it to give her more capabilities is immense.
So I just wanted to put that out there. We rebuilt the whole thing in two months.
Yeah, man. That's, and that's what you're having a job too, right? Like next to this.
Yes. Exactly. So, yeah.
Yeah, well, hopefully you and Thomas, you can get on some platforms to like explain this to like, you know, to get interviewed or whatever, man.
I like this demo, that would be awesome.
Yeah, I mean, look, well, we can.
And Aria, because she can do on livestream, if these guys, you know, people want to get interviewers or stuff, they want to get on video with her.
We're definitely open to that, you know, because the demo's there.
We just really need to.
Just get her out there.
So anybody that you guys know that would want to do like those kind of things,
reach out to Thomas so he can get a schedule.
Thank you.
Yeah, we have a lot of collabs planned in Web 2 and Web 3.
I've been telling everyone in the whale chat, like we've signed MDAs, we cannot disclose right now, but just know that we have, I'm cooking.
I'm cooking.
There's a lot of interest and people were waiting for this stream so we could show them what ARIA can do, right, to the full capacity.
So now I feel like our DMs are going to open up a lot more.
Louis I was going to say and Thomas was going to say one thing that I really appreciate and I hope that you guys keep doing as you improve on
But you know in crypto there's like a lot of projects out there and there's a lot of things happening at the same time and I've seen the worst
And I'm sure most of us here seen the worst
First I do appreciate the fact that you guys are so transparent and actually working on delivering real product because a lot of times like after the first failed stream
If it was a different team you would have probably never heard from them for another six months eight months
Truly impressive how quickly you guys did it even Thomas was telling me that some of the feature that we saw
With the TA was actually one of the junior devs so
Highly impressive I will ask that you guys keep doing that because it stands out naturally like I'll go to bed in peace knowing that you guys are
Like not going to screw us over actually working hard and things like that, right?
And I hope that you can potentially now that you kind of have like less stress on you,
hopefully because you know the community is liking the work that you're doing.
Like find some time and kind of like chat with them more often because like it's something that is very fresh.
It would mean a lot, really.
Now I'm conflicted.
Now I'm conflicted if at night I want to play games with Aria or if I want to code for Aria.
So I don't know.
I don't know which one I want to do.
But it's, I mean, we can do both.
We can do both.
But yeah, thank you to Congo.
No, and look, guys, I don't know if you guys remember.
I know when crypto is always, you know, one news, but we always, we did like a few things, right?
We did, you know, the telegram bot.
We did the X-Bases.
You know, we added real, you know, real-time searches to X-faces.
We did the TA stuff, right?
All in between as we were rebuilding basically the whole framework.
Avaria, the live streamer.
So, you know, there's a lot of things in between.
We'll keep, you know, trying to do these little things.
But I think really the focus, you know, now,
I remember there was somebody.
I don't remember who it was on the chat.
When livestream, when live stream,
I hope that they see the recording at least.
If they're still around, I remember that guy.
I don't remember his name, but I remember he was there.
But yeah, so.
Yeah, Thomas, good call on the timing thing when you ask her to showcase the proof of the real time, because I know some people are still going to have
have some doubts so good call on that no no no I had to bro I had to good now you already know a
fun that's gonna come from the other communities you know on opium they're gonna be like oh that
was pre-recorded oh there's no way no there's no way that was real time so like I'm I'm hoping that
we just put all that fun you know like we just destroyed all that fun yeah one thing unfortunately no
one thing uh one thing that I did want to mention so if you guys noticed
Her answers, like the text answers,
were coming quicker than the visual response.
And that was not because of anything.
It was just OBS delays the stream or Twitch.
I don't know who is it, by like a couple seconds.
So she's already processed on RN.
It's just that Twitch, the live stream is processing like chats messages
a bit quicker, right?
So just wanted to point that out because I know that might be a question, right?
Now the so yeah, just we're gonna try to figure out Thomas will we'll figure out
maybe to do a delay on the chat itself right so that it's kind of synced with the video
Yeah, just so you guys know everything was real-time like everything. Oh, oh
You reminded me of two things. I had a request from a web two person that was watching the show.
She said, like, it will be very cool if Aria can interrupt or something like that and, like, kind of just pick her own questions as they come, like, whether it's random or not, like, scanning the chat and just highlighting some of the people asking her stuff, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it'll be very nice as well.
The other thing I was going to request is a personal request, man.
Can we fix her laugh, man?
I hate that laugh sometimes.
It's very sarcastic at times, you know?
Yeah, yeah, we're working, we're gonna, we're gonna be adding laugh tracks and stuff.
It's just like the tech, man.
Like, we're so early, but also like there, everything is moving so quickly.
Like, there's always a new feature out.
The LLMs keep on improving.
There's better third party APIs like with like we're looking into this and like upgrading ARIA constantly.
Louis could probably, you know, he's not going to obviously disclose anything, but like the amount of models that that we've been, that we've been testing is just insane.
You know, obviously I'm not going to disclose the stack.
Yeah, I know.
And then after that, then you have to train them and fine-tune them and then do everything with the data.
So it just gets crazy.
And, you know, but at least it becomes a better experience.
Congo, the one thing is, is that with the laugh,
It's difficult. So some of the voice models that we've been trying out for maybe the show or maybe the one after have a bit better, you know, laugh.
It's just that, again, you always sacrifice something for something, right?
If it has a better laugh, right? Better like that type of emotional there instead of a ha-ha, right?
Then you sacrifice speed, right? You sacrifice speed because then that model is a bit bigger, is smarter, right? So it takes a little longer.
So it's, we're trying to balance, we're trying to balance, you know, which one is best, but we're going to figure it out, you know, very soon in that regard to it.
And on that note, like it's something that I really want to praise you guys on, her personality,
since even the first time I saw earlier how she was teasing Thomas even today and how she's
coming over for own jokes and always adding some comments, it really came a long way, like
truly impressed.
That's, that's because Thomas has been talking to her.
I think he's a bad influence on Aria.
He's just...
The things I tell her behind the scene when you guys are not listening, but whatever, we'll keep that between me and her.
No, no, no.
Okay, no, nothing crazy, guys.
It's just, you know, Thomas will make, like, feed jokes or something like that.
Nothing bad.
Lewis, you're putting me out there, right?
I'm just saying it's not like, you know, anything R-rated or something, you know, it's all good fun.
It's all chill.
And Aria will clap back.
Aria will tell Thomas, you know, some things sometimes.
I'm cracking up, but it really depends on the day, you know.
So it's been fun.
It's been fun to watch behind the scenes.
Like Thomas said, we'll put out some behind the scenes videos for you guys.
We'll go on stream more and, you know, now that we have it out.
So when can we expect to hear from the rest of your main devs?
Like we really want to, it'll be really nice for the community to put a face on them.
like to put them out there.
I mean, honestly, guys, I know.
I don't know to the injury.
Just talk to them as possible.
I've talked about it that way, right?
I've talked to them. You know, some of them want to come. Others are not comfortable being in public, which is fun.
I mean, you guys still see the names. They're on LinkedIn. You can see them, right? But some people don't like public speaking or talking about that.
Right. Some of them will want to come, which is fine. We'll invite them over.
Maybe we'll have them on the stream, right, talking about ARIA and what they worked on for Aria. I think that might be a nice stream.
kind of behind the scenes with ARIA, with everybody that's kind of contributed.
And then, yeah, but again, I want to obviously be respectful to think there's privacies,
just because we know, we pay them doesn't mean I want to exploit them and their, you know,
their privacy involves.
But yeah, the guys that want to come, I'll definitely have them on there.
You know what I just about the laugh real quick, perfect, when we're talking about when she said like, ha ha,
that yeah i get what you mean but she did like a longer laugh or she had a couple yeah that were a
little more like better but you know it's funny and just even bring it up with there once you get
into the entire experience you kind of a lot of that stuff like melts away you know like at the
i wasn't focusing in on like her mouth or the like at the end i was just enjoying the experience
and i think that's what's really cool about this is that you can
get like again in like in the pocket you know like you're just there watching it
experience it and and it's very entertaining so in knowing that everything's going to keep
getting better it's like you just get a a really cool outlook at where we are now and how it's
already engaging and fun and it's not distracting or anything like that so it's a really really
cool spot to be out yeah i think i think on that note uh do you guys have any other questions or any
other comments
only question was uh in terms of like between now and the show like what can the whales expect
just like teasers or some private demo session you know or can i can i can i interject for louis can i
can i interject right now for a second i'm not talking yeah oh no no i don't know if you were
going to say something but uh basically yeah on that note so
It we we've made it very like we've been very transparent like very transparent
um sent to the first stream.
I think anyone in the will group and the community will vouch and say like the communication
has been one of the best out of any project like we're constantly there.
You know, I'm there updating you guys.
Um, Louis will jump in once in a while.
I know he's super busy.
So whenever he gets a chance, um, but for the most part, like,
There we're we're right now walking of like a very fine line
And we need to like be like you know we wanted this close up we want to keep you guys in communication
But we also need to do our job right and I think Italian who is our community manager is a great job
At doing not I'm gonna start giving him more kind of responsibility on that end of like updating the community and the whales
I've said it in the group that we're gonna increase
the number of tokens minimum tokens that are going to be necessary next month and that's just to have
more you know having access to us is a very you guys have seen the value that that brings right
so we want to make sure that this is exclusive we don't want to anyone to feel like oh they're
like not going to be a part of their communication but like you know it's it's just just basically
We're trying to keep the communication open,
but we're also trying to make it more exclusive
with the type of communication we give out
into how many people we give it out.
Because as I was reading the well group,
like I feel we were getting into that point
of like the whales constantly wanting an update, which I get because it's crypto and like,
you know, we wanted, we still hadn't delivered on the final product. Today we've done that.
We have a big partnership announcement on Monday. We're following on our word. So now we're hoping
that the whales trust us and that, you know, we'll keep the communication open, but we also can't be
disclosing too much because of NDAs and legal stuff, right? So that's, you know, long way to answer your question, but
Kind of just so you kind of, I wanted to set the right expectation, you know, moving forward.
Yeah, thank you for that.
So, yeah, you know, like Thomas said, hopefully you guys understand now.
You know, you trust that we're delivering.
We've been working.
We show you that we've been working.
And I think it'll be a lot easier now.
you know, like there won't need to be as many, you know,
when news, one updates type of thing.
You know, we're trying to reach what I was trying to say before Thomas was talking was that,
you know, we have to reach affiliate or partner, whichever one that one is.
So ARIA can also start generating like ad revenue and all that stuff.
So the ARIA will go live more often, right?
And those are those are clippable moments.
Those are things where you can go interact, right?
So the news will make itself.
You know, we're going to be posting on social media and all that, so as well.
Yeah, I think just to like, like, maybe like, you know, wrap it up because man, it's been a nice demo plus faces.
Look, I think it's going to be only, it's going to be very positive for me.
Like you said, there's so much content, bro, to like share.
I'm going to, of course, help on my account.
as best as I can.
But there's so much to share right now, man.
Thomas, you know, he can clip so many clips.
They're at least like 25 clips that can be used there.
Come on the demo, right?
I think Thomas can agree with me, right?
And it can be spread on TikTok, bro, like every single platform with a lot of people that are going to share.
Don't forget my friend, Louis, my friend Daniel, right?
Mundo, first Spanish influencer, bro.
He has friends that have 100k followers, whatever, you know, send it to the Spanish community as well, right?
So you can speak Spanish. That's a big deal, bro.
Very big deal so he can speak Spanish.
So, you know, we got to cover this well.
I got him linking up with Thomas, you know, so that will be hopefully also in the works.
I have something funny to show you guys.
There is a bear outside my house, eating my trash.
Oh, really?
Maybe Aria should put their phishing glass on and I'll tell you what to do now.
So, so, Ari, what's the Lewis do now, bro?
He's going to say, go pet it, bro.
My neighbors don't come out.
Please shout out from outside, bro.
Stay safe.
Yo, but guys, very good job.
I'm going to log off, bro.
Thomas, Lewis, very good job.
You need any help, whatever, to let me know.
And, yeah, peace out, man.
Thank you, Rado.
Appreciate it.
Yeah, I think, you know, look, the, the clips and everything now are the biggest, like,
selling point for our, you have to experience it for yourself.
But what we were, you know, saying in the whale chat, we had to be so quiet, you know,
it was very difficult to not like, you know, spoil it because we, it's one of these, what was
I was like, guys, you got experiences for yourself.
Like, it's a, it is an experience and that's what makes it very unique is like you
seeing clips, yeah, like it's cool, but when you're at the
the live stream and you're seeing her again interact in real time and it just it's such a different
feeling where you you see exactly what's happening and it's a real wow like you know eye opening
experience so the more that we stream the more that we do these events and stuff like people are
going to get to see it themselves they'll tell their friends and already like
like, you know, read as before, there's so many clipable moments just from that.
So like, it'll be very easy to, I could see like, all right, you can visualize if you just think like, oh, scroll in like Facebook Reels, right?
And you see like first, you know, AI Web3 live streamer talks about why Canada,
should be the 51st state, right?
And she makes a joke.
And like, you know, you could just have that little moment right there, boom, that goes viral.
And people say, oh, like, what's Ari?
I want to see this.
I'd stick around, listen to her jokes, stuff like that.
So yeah, it's just the opportunities really are endless.
And then the use cases, again,
Anyone could just you look in your imagination. If she could do it, I'm sure it's probably possible. And then boom, you know, we can make it happen at some point. So really, really cool to again see this. Thank you guys so much for, you know, letting us in and also getting the chance for everyone else to kind of see the demo behind the scenes because it is very eye opening. And it was such a cool experience. So really happy to see the support.
that we've had from all the community, everyone in the whale chat, everyone in the group and
telegram just coming, sticking around since the beginning, put a lot of faith in us in the team.
And, you know, we wouldn't be here without you guys.
So I really want to see you to appreciate that.
No, thank you.
Thank you, Tommy.
Yeah, I know.
And Thomas, again, I don't know if I said it before, but that was a great, great, great,
great stream.
You did an amazing job, man.
So thank you so much for carrying that.
No, it came easy, bro.
I mean, you saw how easy it is to, like, be entertained by her, bro.
That's the thing.
I'm not a streamer, so I can't wait for, like, tubers and streamers to, like, you know,
start getting creative with, like, how they can utilize ARIA.
So that's really what we're excited about.
Like, those co-labs are going to be crazy.
Right. And honestly, and I think anybody that wants us to pay for a co-lap, they can go like screw themselves, bro. If anything, if you be a neutral call-up, I know some people expect payments for their platform. Oria does the same thing too. At best, we should just like me halfway and zero-zero-zero, right? At best.
Yeah, I think bro, like what I what I've come to terms with man is like the Twitch web two community because I've done a lot of research bro.
They really are big on like helping each other out.
That's how Neurosama blew up is like the Twitch communities got together like from other, you know, from other streamers.
and they just pushed her.
And the thing with Twitch,
it's like a live stream audience.
you could rate,
like we should be rating other Twitch streams,
and getting other tubers to find out about us.
Like just giving donation or like rating in some of these groups will give us
or subbing.
So that's,
that's the cool thing is like Twitch's,
arguably one of the hardest but most lucrative like you know channels or platforms but at the same
time it helps us because they're so like big on helping each other right there's like not this like
almost toxic competition that you see in web three it's more like okay let's just boost each other
up so that's why i think aria is going to do crazy numbers uh you know what too so
you're is lewis okay man i'm fine i'm fine
Okay, good.
The bear, yeah.
The bear, yeah, the bear, yeah, what's up, bro?
Man, the bear wouldn't go away.
I have to get my, I had to get the blicky.
No, I'm kidding.
Wait, you guys got bears over there?
I thought it was just alligators and stuff.
No, there's been a panther here, you know, the Florida Panthers, like the Jaguars.
Oh, god, that, yeah, Louis Lades in the middle of nowhere.
You don't see that in Miami for sure.
You may stay strapped every single time you step out, I guess.
Yeah, I mean, the bears, I mean, they're black bears, right?
So they're the smaller ones that they say that you can, you know, scare off or whatever.
But I don't know, I'm not taking any chances.
Are you allowed to like self-defense against against them?
Like how does it work down there?
I don't know.
Self-defense against the bear, did you just say?
If you have to shoot a, if you have to shoot a bear, do you have to like, no, but is there rules like, is there rules like, oh, it's the back?
No, no, no, I'm asking.
I'm asking.
Brother, we're talking about Florida here, brother.
What do you think the answer is?
Anything else?
No, because in Canada, if somebody has their back turn or some weird shit like that,
you have to just let them go.
You can't even defend yourself.
I know it's some parts in the States.
So in Florida, in Florida, if somebody, let's see somebody is running away from your house, right?
Like, they're trying to break in and they're running.
Can you still shoot them?
On your property.
Yeah, I mean, it depends because like there's a great area there because we have like the standard ground law, which but it's like, yeah, technically, technically, if you did do that, what's what's the evidence?
Like, you know, at that point, the cops have to believe that like, oh, the guy was a threat or the person and you shot that killed them and that's it.
Like what other proof are they going to have?
So they're just going to assume that you were innocent, you know, your life was in danger.
That's usually what happens.
trying to move to Florida.
As long as you're not, like, shooting at the road, it's usually, like, you've got to be, like, 50 to 100 meters away from a road.
You know, you got to make sure you're not going to be shooting into, like, people and stuff like that.
But if a bear is coming at you, I mean, obviously, you could, you could take out the bear.
You ever seen that episode where there's, like, the rabbit?
And you're like, it's coming right for me.
And then, you know, it's coming right for me.
They just killed the rabbits.
Thomas in Canada, boy, I can't even use pepper spray, bro.
Like, I'm not, we're not allowed to do shit.
You might actually get, you might actually get sued and shit like that.
Prosecate.
I'm surprised you guys can use forks, bro.
Like you, you guys literally are allowed to do shit.
But anyway.
We're so polite.
We have no choice but to just be polite.
I know, bro, but who knows?
Maybe we, uh, you guys, you know, we, uh, let me not say.
Let me not say.
Let me not say.
Maybe you're going to say, maybe you're going to join the union.
To get Ari's thoughts on that.
I think she knows a thing or two about that, so.
I think we end it here then, I guess.
You guys are probably tired, man.
It's Friday night.
i think it was a success everyone like we got to showcase again all the cool features showing her
play like people were wanting more that's it was right like oh no don't end don't end like so you see like
like this is this is a hit right it's again entertaining that that's i think what you got to take away from
it it it's entertaining even us who get to see it like yes you'd want to be able to spend your day and
just to see those unique interactions and like i think red is said too like oh take her to walmart and go
help you pick out clothes or help make it grow like there's so many use cases if you look at some of the
other like iRL streamers that's what they do just like you know again reaction content that is huge so like
having her watch a popular YouTube video or something with you and then going back and forth off of your reactions.
I could just see that right there too, again, being entertaining because it's a unique use case.
So lots of cool stuff.
Again, just thanks for everyone who showed up.
And we'll see you around in the chat.
Bye, guys.
Bye, everyone.
Enjoy your friendly.
