Kyutai’s AI voice assistant beats OpenAI to public
release

A French non-profit AI lab, Kyutai, has outpaced OpenAI by releasing Moshi, a fast and emotion-savvy voice AI assistant, ahead of the anticipated GPT-4o voice assistant. Using synthetic text and dialogues, Moshi was trained to interact naturally and promptly, boasting a 200-millisecond response time. The model, which can run on consumer-grade hardware, exhibited a seamless real-time communication experience that is publicly accessible for testing. Despite some glitches, its on-device functionality points to future AI assistants that respect privacy by avoiding cloud-based processing. Kyutai plans to release all development components of Moshi, showcasing the capabilities of a small, dedicated AI engineering team.
