alt.ai announces altTalk, an LLM-powered ultra-high-speed spoken dialogue system

Promoting business innovation with a next-generation dialogue engine that achieves a response speed of 0.53 seconds and emotion understanding accuracy of 96.3%

TOKYO, JAPAN, November 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- alt Inc. (https://alt.ai/en/, head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kazutaka Yonekura), is pleased to announce the release of its ultra-high speed spoken dialogue system, altTalk (https://alttalk.ai/). altTalk is an embedded AI conversation engine platform that allows users to easily introduce advanced conversational AI into their own systems.


altTalk is built by combining several of alt’s cutting-edge AI technologies, including a large language model, emotion recognition, emotional expression determination, RAG (retrieval-augmented generation), conversation development prediction, and speech recognition.

The new platform is distinguished by its 0.53-second response time for spoken dialogue, offering even lower latency than a normal human-to-human conversation. This allows for seamless natural interactions, and allows altTalk to understand the emotions of the other party while also expressing its own emotions. The launch of altTalk will realize a conversational system that can freely carry out tasks that require complex dialogue, and will be able to replace many tasks currently performed by humans, greatly contributing to improving the operational efficiency of companies and organizations.

altTalk is also scheduled to begin offering services to corporations from the end of this month. It can be used in a variety of fields, including customer support, education, and entertainment, and will contribute not only to improving the operational efficiency of companies and organizations, but also to creating new value.
