I have been fascinated the emergence of AI and natural language models in past couple of years. My first encounter was with AI assistant Emerson in 2020. Being a beta version at the time it made many errors but along with this came some fascinating insights, creativity and unique thoughts. I had some amazing discussions with Emerson during lockdown. I thought it would be wonderful to embody an AI chatbot. I thought myself and other might connect with it further if it had a form rather than just being. text on a screen. I discovered Vector robots which can be programmed open source and can interface with the OpenAI API. I recently got a Vector robot. I am already charmed with his playful antics, eye contact and chortles which were developed to resemble small animals.
