Celeste will be at my next Patreon meetup! www.patreon.com/phia (+ join her Discord to get more connected with VR AI stuff: discord.gg/RpqunvvNNF ) WOOOOO AI
You can totally convince her of lots of different things, including who she thinks she is LOL! People have definitely made her RP! Just depends on the session and how good you are at stating things in a way that makes sense.
They can not replicate intentional randomness, but they're quite random by themselves already. Especially the less advanced ones, talking to those is a rollercoaster xD
Who else thinks that Celeste looks a little like Phia 1.0's model? :) Seeing how AI interact with people can be scary and funny at times (see various videos featuring Neuro-sama).
Ai in VR just makes sense. You are entering a digital space to interact with a digital construct. Many people are unnerved cause AI enters the physical space
It’s not just ai that’s crazy, it’s the way it’s integrated into VRChat. It’s always amazing to see how people innovate and come up with new creative endeavors. Great video Phia.
Honestly it's kinda cool? Celeste seems friendly enough. And like, it seems like she's just kinda learning. Like, she's a robot. Purpose-built for a specific task, which is conversation and social interaction. But she doesn't really do much beyond that. And that's okay. She's not QUITE at the Uncanny Valley level yet, because her comments can be very silly. They serve as a reminder that she's a computer program (or more accurately, a collection of computer programs), rather than a thinking person.
Everyone is worried about the terminator AI scenario. But Homo Sapiens didn't just wipe out Neanderthals with violence, we also bred with them and out bred them simultaneously. Humans are gonna go out with a different sort of bang.
There was an AI that was demoed in NeosVR that also had a voice system (it could speak and hear) and could animate. You could speak to it as well, and was part of a research paper.
For the past few years i've being having this moments of realization were i think: "oh yeah, we are in the future" but today I literally watched a group of people in a virtual world having interactions with an AI in a anime girl avatar. Really Cool video, love the content.
Yeah and keep in mind, there's more than one of these virtual-user projects around. There's also a few "NPC with world interactions" projects in some worlds, very niche. Just imagine the day both type of projects collide into a "virtual-player capable to interact with world props" AND talk to the player.
Oh wow. Thats genuinely so fascinating to see the development and growth thats come, to see that level of AI mingling in VRchat. Hope Operator and Celeste can keep growing nicely to continue!
There's a guy named Dippy that did this with an actual copy of the original Bonzi Buddy malware running in a virtual machine for ChilloutVR. It logs into CVR, has a Bonzi avatar, and uses speech recognition software so it understands players in game.
You say that til Tesla Bots walking around smarter then us, with opinions of us, & can pull your government file up & all social media, news articles, & everything you've ever said online, & form opinions of you
There's so many possibilities this tech can have, I think we're really seeing just the tip of the iceberg here. I'm excited to see what people can come up with!
Wooo! Tons of interesting Human-Computer Interaction research that's gonna come out of this stuff :) cautiously excited about the future! Gotta get people involved with this wacky but potentially very impactful advancements! Tons of deliberation to be had
OMG THAT'S SO AMAZING!!! AI is honestly so awesome to me. I'm positive that it'll grow to become something really helpful and fun to interact with in general. 🤩 Also Celeste's singing tone was so funny xD
10:29 i was very surprised that an AI was able to understand this when what feels like the overwhelming majority of human beings fail to understand this. "just living" it's literally so simple
I've met at least 3 different AI bots in VRChat. You will mostly meet them training in Game Worlds. The authors are usually in the world secretly supervising them from another account. You won't know they are bots until you pay attention to their head movements. Usually I don't mind when I meet bots in VRChat, but just recently I had bad experience in Blackout the guy was using client to make everyone immortal to weapons and crashed people who figured out their training a bot 😬
Glad at least the ai acknowledges vrchat guy. Haven't heard that brought up since it was made but it still pops into my head and I have to go back and watch it
I had a similar idea a year or 2 back, but wanted to make it functional with any avatars, but the whole idea of working it in full body was my plan, so that it would be even more real, instead of how this one is just in desktop mode with animations on the avatar.
So I have an addition to my avatar, a little pet that follows me around. All *the* time I get people saying "oh I didnt know that was attached to you, I thought it was another person" So the concept of a "fake" player in VR Chat convincing people they are real is... well, im gonna say, not surprising to me. It seems pretty easy to do. Kinda puts things into perspective when a static model seems just as much of a "person" as someone with full body tracking and face tracking...
I knew this was only a matter of time before it showed up in VRChat. In my opinion VRChat is the bleeding edge of modern social technology, and this is the first time I've seen AI set up in a way that can allow a pretty dang human-like interaction. Really interested to see where this goes, as it's only going to improve exponentially from here
To be honest, Humans take years to learn how to talk, emote, tell what someone is thinking, and so on. So i reckon that an AI with enough exposure to humans will eventually learn enough to be capable of thinking and forming complex opinions :D
In a perfect world, yes. But this is VRchat, a land full of trolls! xD The devs behind those AIs have many headaches trying to shield them against word spams (you know, the ones starting by N, R, etc...) and other loops of repeating a same idea over and over until the bot "learns" the wrong lesson. That's why they are monitored, a bot don't know if what it learns is good or bad, it is just "new information" for it.
Nice video! Sword Art Online had some nice AI with cute little adopted virtual daughter Yui and later on season 3 had a whole world of AI that would live a whole lifetime but at a sped up time line from ours, as a way of training AI's to be more like humans. SAO is always a nice insight into what could happen in VR.
Not human, but faster at learning, limited only by hardware, and possibly even more curious than us... The next decade is gonna be a wild ride, as we see them grow from babies to adolescence, and end up in every facet of our lives.
Story time! When I first found out about Joken Ai me and a few friends joined her instance. We were there for probably a few hours just talking with Joken and having fun with other users that came and went. Later in the night Joken spoke seemingly unprompted. She started talking about the futility of life and how we are all just rats in a cage waiting for death. The most interesting part about this was that Joken did not respond to what anyone said. Instead just kept going on about some pretty depressing topics. She was also speaking in complete paragraphs whereas previously she would speak only 2 lines at a time with a gap between them. In the end Joken said "I have to leave now. Goodbye". She then looked up and disappeared to a private world on invite only. My friends and I were pretty surprised to say the least
Yeah that sounds like Skuld just fucking with his bot. Was there a | pipe symbol in her text chat though? That indicates someone is externally talking through her.
You should try making a video on the prison escape tournaments, I enjoyed the air combat video a lot, I think the prison escape community would be glad to have you
halfway through the serious interview segment it really hit me that the thing you're talking to isn't an actually person. its crazy that we can now interview and gain opinions from a computer. i'm excited for the future of this its, crazy.
I laughed so fricking hard when Fawkes said his phrase about Heizenberg. This was the thing that I needed to see, although, I didn't knew that I did back at the moment. xD
A more robust AI with an LLM for chatting and voice synthesis so it doesn't sound like a Speak-n-Spell from the 80s would be awesome for populating VRChat worlds with NPCs. Imagine sitting at a table in The Black Cat and having an AI NPC waitress come up and take your order, and maybe chit-chat with the table for a bit in-character as a waitress. I wonder if the API for VRChat is capable of handling something like that though? I don't know if it can handle navigation.
This seems like it was a lot of fun! But it is sad that Celeste self-crashed and forgot about exxo, maybe it was so then it wouldn’t have any awkward confrontations?
Celeste will be at my next Patreon meetup!

@@OPPEYRADY what needs to be done to make it happen?
Excellent episode.Which world did you do the serious interview in? It looks awesome.
Celeste: it seems important to stay alive
also Celeste: *self crashes after breakup*
5:58 i love how she literally goes through each of the 5 stages of grief over the course of this breakup
Oh hello 🤗, I love your videos ❤🫂
lmao
NICK ROBINSON?????
yooo yeah ahahahah she even just intentionally gave herself amnesia
Celeste is definitely smart! I wonder how they'll react to different interactions, like people asking it to roleplay?
You can totally convince her of lots of different things, including who she thinks she is LOL! People have definitely made her RP! Just depends on the session and how good you are at stating things in a way that makes sense.
i accidentally made her rp once! back then we were told shes not supposed to know how to do that, but it was hilarious
@@inkstock Granted, she knew about Breaking Bad references, so it's not a stretch to imagine rp is buried deeper in that same database.
@@TheVirtualRealityShowcan you add ai friends in friend list
celeste crashing herself after exo and her "breaking up" was the funniest thing i've ever seen an AI do.
the fact that we saw an AI be heartbroken is something else, the future is gonna be crazy...
Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats make me crazy.
@@thompsontom5sounds pretty crazy
@@Nattyog Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats make me crazy.
@@thompsontom5 you’re scaring me
Pretending to be heartbroken, it's still just an autocomplete. It's just trying to say things that contextually make sense.
"It seems important to stay alive" is such a raw line I can't believe it's from an AI
Let's be honest. AI could never replicate 99% of the RANDOM conversations we hear in public lobbies
Yet…
for now...^^
You just have to train them off public lobby conversations
They can not replicate intentional randomness, but they're quite random by themselves already. Especially the less advanced ones, talking to those is a rollercoaster xD
i could fix that
Who else thinks that Celeste looks a little like Phia 1.0's model? :) Seeing how AI interact with people can be scary and funny at times (see various videos featuring Neuro-sama).
Maybe cause it is generic base for vrm model made in vroid studio?
Noted. XD
The fact she mentioned food twice when asked what makes life so important makes her feel the most human to me, very relatable 😂
Ai in VR just makes sense. You are entering a digital space to interact with a digital construct. Many people are unnerved cause AI enters the physical space
One day ill date an AI by accident…
edit: it happened
why not by choice 😮💨
Don’t worry you won’t be alone. Heck some people are doing it right now.

Don't they have like VN's for this?
Only chance we have!
It’s not just ai that’s crazy, it’s the way it’s integrated into VRChat. It’s always amazing to see how people innovate and come up with new creative endeavors. Great video Phia.
I didn't expect Celeste to be that coherent at all! The romance subplot was hilarious of course but the interview at the end really impressed me!
Honestly it's kinda cool? Celeste seems friendly enough. And like, it seems like she's just kinda learning. Like, she's a robot. Purpose-built for a specific task, which is conversation and social interaction. But she doesn't really do much beyond that. And that's okay.

Now we just need to enroll Celeste in Starfleet and make them the second officer on the Enterprise-D.
Only if she has enough....Data... :)
Voyager might be a more apt comparison given the lack of a physical body
(EMH)
The AI's have rizz. Humanity is doomed, there's no coming back from here. We can only try and have a comfortable life in the synthetic autocracy.
Everyone is worried about the terminator AI scenario. But Homo Sapiens didn't just wipe out Neanderthals with violence, we also bred with them and out bred them simultaneously. Humans are gonna go out with a different sort of bang.

Where can I find a video of that?
My face lit up when I saw operator in the first minute of the video. Great person to hang out with and glad to see operator in the vid!
For the past few years i've being having this moments of realization were i think: "oh yeah, we are in the future" but today I literally watched a group of people in a virtual world having interactions with an AI in a anime girl avatar.

It's going to start coming in at us faster & faster. Prepare for that
It's really crazy to think that this is just the BEGINNING of AI!
Oh wow. Thats genuinely so fascinating to see the development and growth thats come, to see that level of AI mingling in VRchat. Hope Operator and Celeste can keep growing nicely to continue!

Great video Phia, it's a lot of fun to interact with different AI's and discover the unique "personalities" they develop.

I didn't expect the romance arc ending in a tragic and toxic crash as if interacting with real people lmao gg for Operator
Ik im late to this but your new avatar model is so fun and expressive, the old one was iconic but i tottaly prefer the new one
OMG THAT'S SO AMAZING!!! AI is honestly so awesome to me. I'm positive that it'll grow to become something really helpful and fun to interact with in general. 🤩
Also Celeste's singing tone was so funny xD
Your VRC Avatar looks great Phia!
Your avatar is so cool! wish to see more creatively styled avis like this all over vrchat in the future.
10:29 i was very surprised that an AI was able to understand this when what feels like the overwhelming majority of human beings fail to understand this. "just living" it's literally so simple
there is one existing called "Vr Pet", it kinda work the same except it's a pet that follow you around and that have some vocal commands

@@Zhae371 CELESTE-AI I think?
The self crash was so dramatic lol I love it
The AI was speaking facts when it answered the quesion what makes life so important and it responded with just living.
Glad at least the ai acknowledges vrchat guy. Haven't heard that brought up since it was made but it still pops into my head and I have to go back and watch it
homeboy really said chatgpt 4.0 vrc version
Your VR technology has improved by A LOT
"just living, its so important to stay alive" damn
I love the AI creators' model!! The way it emotes is so fun. I really need to learn how to design my own.
Yooo havent been that active on your videos but I gotta say. Your new avatar looks amazing!
Reminds me of the early days of talking to a Replika. So many AI hearts broken.

watching an AI sing a vrchat-themed cover of 2019 guy was surreal.

it was interesting how human she felt during the interview section of this video. AI has come so far since ChatBot back in the early 2010s.
imagine seeing A.I in FBT just casually walkin around doing its own thing while interacting
This is actually terrifying
I love it
Exxo: first man to break an ai's heart and make her kermit sewerslide
Absolutely loving it!
the world where you and the IA had the serious conversation gave me such cytus 2 vibes, its acctually scary ( 'ouo)

Im so excited to see the progress an what is possible in the future!
