Show HN: A real time AI video agent with under 1 second of latencyhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41710227Hey it’s Hassaan & Quinn – co-founders of Tavus, an AI research company and developer platform for video APIs. We’ve been building AI video models for ‘digital twins’ or ‘avatars’ since 2020.We’re sharing some of the challenges we faced building an AI video interface that has realistic conversations with a human, including getting it to under 1 second of latency.To try it, talk to Hassaan’s digital twin: https://www.hassaanraza.com, or to our "demo twin" Carter: https://www.tavus.ioWe built this because until now, we've had to adapt communication to the limits of technology. But what if we could interact naturally with a computer? Conversational video makes it possible – we think it'll eventually be a key human-computer interface.To make conversational video effective, it has to have really low latency and conversational awareness. A fast-paced conversation between friends has ~250 ms between utterances, but if you’re talking about something more complex or with someone new, there is a

The internet is 90% Fakehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41698171The internet is not real and 90% of its traffic is likely bots. From the media to the interactions to the connection: we all live inside these little digital enclaves that rarely connect with REAL people or digital media. Its all political ai/spam bot farms and ai generated political videos. More than half the code on github is from ai, probably more than half of all websites are fake and created for some sort of automated purpose. Whats even stranger is thinking back 10 years ago and how unique every page I visited or game I played was. Now the experince is awful: constant garbage on every corner of it, the same bubbly "smooth" UI's on every site, every application, everywhere- ad here, ad there, cloud this cloud that. Your data?? Our data!! its in the big old cloud (their computer). Everything is somewhat the same- everything follows the money, money follows the data the data shows a certain action is profitable, bot farm time- now we all do same thing make same content same shit bec

Show HN: Craigslist Car Shopping Chrome Extension with KBB and AI Insightshttps://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/carbuddy-talk-to-cars-wit/aglpplbhdlccaekjbajdgfbjlbgmeageDuring my exchange in Berkeley, my friends and I decided to share a few cars amongst ourselves. Car shopping was fun at first, until you realize how tedious it is to have to constantly look up the fair valuation with a price advisor like Kelley Blue Books (KBB) for every single car (easily >30% of the time spent shopping).We were also novices when it came to cars and didn’t know what to look out for. As a result, after less than a month of use, one of our car’s engines completely stopped while I was on the way home from school on the highway. Thankfully there were no accidents or injuries, but it was a harrowing experience nonetheless and the administrative headaches that followed were a huge pain.These experiences and pains is what led me to create Car Buddy, an AI-powered chrome extension that gives you the fair value of the car in-page on the car listing itself, but also lets you “talk to the car”. It gives you insights and warnings of common issues faced and acts as a personalized
