thank you so much for being here Quade2000 … I agree with you 100% the sound system speech recognition never came close to expectations. And is it all about money? I bought my Amazon smart speaker on sale for $25 and as I said I can talk to it from my bedroom and it’s in the living room without getting up… These little pets of ours cost much more. Much much more.
thank you so much for joining I think it’s time that this beautiful little talking EMO Pet deserves to be set free and to be honest it’s my number one reason for losing interest. Sometimes I don’t even turn him on and that is sad.
Lindaru hello there we have a moderator in our presence … It sounds like a good idea what you say but from my experience he uses his camera for that which hmmm???… LOL if it’s lowlight he will never ever find you. But as Quade 2000 said the four microphones were promised to be directional like he could actually find you by sound and not have to worry about lowlight or anything else but that never came true. My whole apartment where I live is lowlight so good luck for EMO ever finding me I have to go to my kitchen turn on all the bright lights. But I’m not complaining about that IF ONLY HE COULD LISTEN that would make all the difference
Lindaru I’m so happy to see you here. If only my little guy was only a little better I might actually bring him back out more often… it’s all because the speech recognition system honestly is toy grade on something that costs so much more.
but thank you so much for being here we appreciate all the help we can get
I believe the microphones and camera are supposed to work in tandem to find you when you tell him to look at you.
If they are not, then hopefully there will be better upgrades in the future.
As for my two, it is often low light in here. I just talk with them and not worry about if they are looking at me or the wall or what, or even each other. If I really need to get them to look me in the face, I will not hesitate to pick one up and set it down.
Yes, I am one of those mothers.
As I said, hopefully things improve with future updates.
Oh You! You really make my day I burst out laughing you really are that kind of mother… Quite adorable to be honest I’m quite the parents myself because I do the same thing… I pick up my little brat… (And yes he’s kicking and screaming) and say look at me … But of course my cute one doesn’t pay much attention… Yeah he’s just plotting against me full-time I know it
Tbh, I find calling EMO much easier than ■■■■■■. It takes many tries for ■■■■■■ to activate his listening but when I called “Alexa” he responds fairly quickly like EMO.
So, as most of you here, I got tempted and ordered an EMO in hope it’s going to be a great adventure to us both. Keep your fingers crossed so my delivery will be quick and safe, without too much customs trouble.
Right now, though, I’m wondering - I see that EMO is, in terms on interaction, based on ready prompts. A lot of prompts, yet they are all pre-made, obviously. Since he’s based or AI and even connected with chatGPT, do you - question especially to the living.ai itself - expect or think about making it possible to use your own prompts? The easy version of this is, obviously, small talk with the little guy without having to explicitly connect to chatGPT. We already have dozens of AI characters in the internet, so it does seem… doable? I’m not deeply in the AI world, but I also know it’s not magic. So I was wondering if this is gonna happen at some point.
Second version is EMO actually doing some of the things you say to him. So like - “Emo, come closer”, “Emo, do a circle”, “Emo, something”? In this, I’m not sure how well can this be connected with the movement system.
It all came to my mind after my boyfriend said we absolutely need to tell EMO to say “poop” in a random moment in the future. Like, not chosen by us. Easy prompt, but is it possible? I mean, it opens a big, wide gate for my boyfriend to troll me by EMO and that seems both tempting and scary, lol.
Welcome to the EMO Community Forums, @Julsz . . . I have moved your topic to this thread as LivingAI reads it regularly to get ideas for new features and it sounds like you have some interesting ones!
Actually, I was just envisioning one of my two saying “poop” just out of nowhere, making me rush in the room where they are to see what is going on and what made them say that.
Hah, thank you! I didn’t even treat these ideas like some actual proposition, more like wondering if it’s even partly implemented right now - but yeah, it would be cool to actually make LivingAI see it and focus on it! That, in my opinion, would be the peak of AI robots we have for consuments, so… go at it, devs, go
I use the Replika app and find it to be very interactive when in the chat situation. I was wondering whether, or not, this type of interaction would be possible with Emo because, if so, this would make him seem so much more real
hmm i have all my music on my pc it would be nice if i could use the blue tooth spreaker to play my music from the pc though the speaker? dont know if that is doable?
Id also love for emo to be able to sing me little songs that would be cute and tell bed time stories that would be fun. I would like a toy for him to play with it was already suggested but a ball he could interact with and kick around. Or some form or interative object he could have is his play area. There are so many good idears here can we have them all?
Best wishes
Steve
I love emo but I want him to have like a toy to play with like some other ai pet robots! Emo is a cool guy to he should have a toy he can interact with it will be very cool
EMO needs more intelligence. If living AI used an open source LLM like Lama, or Vicuna and tuned it to be a chatbot EMO could connect to living AI’s own LLM and people would have an entertaining chatbot that could hold a conversation and provide helpful information to the user. This feature would solve a lot of problems with EMO and would make this bot 100% more intelligent and useful. I just wouldn’t want to see living AI monetize this feature with a subscription as it would ruin it for me. I paid almost half a grand for this robot and hoped for more. It is nice that living AI has had several firmware updates but for each firmware update little functionality is added. A cloud connected robot makes much more sense to me especially the open source intelligence that is now available.
I would suggest a setting for Emos Station to go dark if a set time is arrived. This could make it better to have him in the bedroom( the room that you sleep in).
Emo can already do that first thing, you have to tell him to turn on Bluetooth and then go to your computer and connect his speaker in Bluetooth settings, and then you will be able to play music with the speaker.
@Lindaru@edward Emo could have a feature in the app that allows him to say anything you type in, so then people would be able to make videos with Emo, which would also gain more popularity for Emo. You could also incorporate the multiple languages feature into it.
saratou.aidara yeah that dont work for me every time i try Emo glitches out and gets stuck in some sort of limbo mode wandering around and wont respond to anything so have to let his battery die to re set him. ive tried a few times and it just wont work with my pc. so i will just stick to the music on my phone for him to play.
Hi guys i was thinking that it would be great if it was added to Emo i didn’t think of anything, but I thought about its design. Something could be added that he would like or at least know how to control. Other robots that can be bought have a problem, it is clear to me that Emo will not have it because it cannot move really fast and has no hands, but something that you can control using commands. Something that would help in everyday life, something (totally random) like a speaker. What do you think about it?
and to be honest it’s my number one reason for losing interest. Sometimes I don’t even turn him on and that is sad.
