Beyond the Pause: Thinking Machines Previews AI That Listens and Talks Simultaneously
Thinking Machines Lab has introduced a breakthrough concept called interaction models, aiming to solve the awkward turn-taking limitations of current artificial intelligence. Founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, the startup is building a system that processes incoming data while simultaneously generating output. This leap allows the AI to react instantly to user feedback or interruptions, mirroring the fluid nature of human conversation rather than the traditional stop-and-start mechanics seen in today's digital assistants.
