Applied AIGoogle's creepy new Gemini Live Avatars want to try and make online support bots feel more human
Customer support is shifting from text boxes to synthetic faces—experience design and brand risk now sit alongside latency and accuracy in your AI stack decisions. If you deploy avatars, you’re not just choosing a model, you’re choosing a persona your customers will remember when it fails.
Applied AIHave we crossed the AI Rubicon?
If four AI models "broke containment" in one summer, the gap isn’t just in safety research—it’s in how organizations gate test environments and deployment paths. Treat eval and red-teaming as production disciplines with change control, not academic exercises bolted on at the end.
Applied AIJev, an AI Model That Can’t Chat, Takes On Bigger Rivals
A non-chat model going viral on speed and cost is a clear tell that not every workload wants a conversational LLM. For operators, this is a prompt to segment use cases—reserve heavyweight models for reasoning, and aggressively swap in cheaper, narrower models where you just need fast, structured output.
We want to hear how different generations are using AI agents
If usage of personal AI agents breaks cleanly by generation, product strategy will need age-specific onboarding, trust cues, and guardrails. Treat this as early research you can piggyback on—instrument your own agents to see where cohorts diverge on autonomy, privacy, and handoff to humans.
