"This year, the company debuted an improved version of AI Santa, designed to be more expressive and emotionally aware. Santa is now a "Tavus PAL," the company's name for its real-time AI agents that are built to see, hear, respond, and appear human. AI Santa can now see users' expressions and gestures and respond to them. It also remembers users' conversations and interests, creating a more personalized experience. Notably, it now can take actions of its own, including searching the web for present ideas or even perform everyday tasks like drafting emails."
"During testing, the conversation with AI Santa was engaging for the most part. When we mentioned wanting a new PlayStation for Christmas, Santa followed up with questions about our favorite video games, showing knowledge of specific titles like Baldur's Gate 3. It also smiled back when we did. (We didn't like that part very much, but maybe others will.)"
Tavus, an AI startup that creates digital replicas using voice and face cloning technology, launched AI Santa for the second consecutive year. Parents and children can sign up for a free account and interact with AI Santa via text, phone, or video chat to share Christmas wishes, holiday plans, and check naughty-or-nice status. The updated AI Santa is a "Tavus PAL," a real-time agent that sees, hears, responds, appears human, remembers conversations, and personalizes interactions. The agent can take actions such as searching the web for gift ideas and drafting emails. Early testing was engaging, and user traffic has been heavy and growing.
