Bryan Chiang, a Stanford University computer science student, had a brilliant idea of using ChatGPT, an AI language model, to help people have better conversations. With the help of an augmented reality eyepiece, Chiang teamed up with friends to develop it. RizzGPT, an AI-powered monocle, was the result of their hard work. It featured a camera, a microphone, and a projector that when worn allowed ChatGPT to capture conversations and help the user determine what to say next.
Chiang showed off the prototype and demonstrated by answering a question about his biggest weakness. RizzGPT read the response to him that “I believe my biggest weakness is that I can be too hard on myself sometimes. I’m always striving to do my best and sometimes I can burn myself out.”
Although the delay and response of the prototype lacked naturalness and charisma, Chiang saw the potential as he envisioned a future with faster 5G connectivity, augmented reality eyeglasses, and intelligent AI. He did not aim to replace human conversation, but solely wished to help individuals who suffer from social anxiety or difficulty communicating.
Brilliant Labs, the brains behind RizzGPT, are at the forefront of technology by blending AI with augmented reality to enhance conversations and provide support. Their goal is to revolutionise the communication process and create a future where humans and computers interact easily and naturally. Bryan Chiang intends to bring this vision to reality and create a more enhanced system of communication.
