Here’s what Mira Murati’s AI company is up to
TL;DR
Thinking Machines, the AI company founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, announced Monday that it's working on something called "interaction models. " The idea behind interaction models, according to Thinking Machines, is that they will let people "collaborate with AI the way we naturally collaborate with each other - they continuously take in audio, video, and text, and think, respond, and act in real time. " As explained by Thinking Machines: Today's models experience reality in a single thread.
Nauti's Take
Promising: interaction models that continuously sense audio, video and text are a real step beyond today's turn-based chat — and Murati's team has the pedigree to push this past a research demo. The catch is substance: Thinking Machines has shipped a concept, not products or benchmarks, and no rollout date is public.
Anyone building serious AI workflows should track this closely, but waiting for actual releases before integrating is the smarter call.
