While a lot of people have been having fun chatting with OpenAI’s ChatGPT, one Stanford student has found a new use for the large language model: interacting with others in the real-world.
Computer science and electrical engineering student Bryan Hau-Ping Chiang has made ChatGPT portable and interactive thanks to open source Monocle AR hardware and OpenAI’s Whisper automatic speech recognition (ASR). A smartphone is currently used within the setup, too. These combined technologies have been given the catchy name rizzGPT ("Rizz" is slang for "charisma") by Chiang. Guided in real-time, Chaing has used the AI chat assistant during events such as a mock job interview, a chance meeting with a friend, and choosing the best dishes at a new restaurant.
