Online Blockchain plc: Update on AI Assistant Product
- New functionality and use cases for Synthia AI -
Online Blockchain plc, the London-listed incubator of technology
applications, announces the latest details and developments on
Synthia, its AI whole-life assistant.
Synthia, currently in early alpha testing, is powered by a
variety of cutting-edge large language models (LLMs) including some
of the same technologies used by Open AI's ChatGPT. It is designed
to make life more efficient, productive and easy for busy
executives and is already helping users arrange their communication
channels into a single stream. The AI assistant now has full SMS
integration in addition to its voice and emailing capabilities and
can send and receive text messages on behalf of the user as well as
perform numerous information retrieval tasks.
Examples of features and tasks that Synthia AI can currently
undertake include:
-- Set up meetings, send calendar invites, obtain a list of
events in the diary and schedule tasks to be performed at a later
time
-- Check information and deliver a host of research-based tasks
-- HTML/Web scraping - can retrieve and summarise the textual
content of a specified webpage and answer specific questions about
it
-- Safe or Scam? - can perform a reputation check on a specified
URL to determine if it may potentially be a scam
-- PDF scraping - given a PDF document, can answer questions or
perform a task based on the text content for example providing a
summary
-- YouTube video answers - given a YouTube video, can answer
questions or perform a task based on the subtitles such as writing
a short user guide document
-- Create images - with a given prompt can create an image corresponding to the prompt's subject
-- Each person's assistant now has its own configurable settings
and unique phone number and email address. Users can name their
assistant, set their primary language and time zone, and set auto
speak
-- Multi-language support
-- Send/receive SMS and voice calls as well as email a specified
address with a context-appropriate subject and body
The AI assistant utilises an innovative proprietary plugin
system and has access to a wide range of different APIs and
services such as WolframAlpha and Bing Web Search. In an
improvement on ChatGPT, the AI assistant can contextually
understand tasks and choose which plugins to employ to obtain
information from the most appropriate source. It is then able to
integrate multiple responses and intelligently formulate them in a
single chat window. Synthia AI can answer various queries related
to live information, general knowledge, finance, people, places,
books, popular culture and more; everything from checking the
weather in a given location to finding the best restaurants and
getting the spot price for gold.
M ulti-language support has also been added and includes
English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Russian
and Portuguese. Synthia automatically translates text/voice from
one language into another so two users speaking in different
languages can seamlessly interact via their AI assistants in their
native tongues. In the latest alpha version, the team is currently
experimenting with enabling users to interact with their executive
assistant via verbal conversations. Utilising the latest
cutting-edge AI powered voice models from ElevenLabs, Synthia can
answer back in a variety of languages.
