Thinking Machines Demos Real-Time AI Voice and Video

Thinking Machines, the AI startup founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati and co-founder John Schulman, has previewed new interaction models aimed at enabling near-real-time AI voice and video conversations. The company is challenging the current turn-based AI interaction model, where users submit inputs and wait for responses. Their approach aims to make AI respond more fluidly, even processing new inputs while still generating a response — a shift that could better support jobs requiring natural human interaction.
