Sesame AI, a new ultra-realistic voice assistant, is making waves for its human-like conversation capabilities. Developed by Sesame, a company co-founded by Oculus visionary Brendan Iribe, this AI is being described as the most natural and responsive AI voice assistant ever created.
A Reddit user recently shared an astonishing experience, saying:
"Roleplaying with Sesame’s new voice AI feels like the future of AI assistants."
Sesame AI: What Makes It Different?
1. Incredibly Realistic Voice & Emotional Awareness
Sesame AI's assistant, "Maya," doesn’t just respond—it adapts. Unlike Alexa or Siri, Maya understands tone, pauses, and emotional cues, making interactions feel eerily real.
2. Context Retention & Deep Conversations
One of Sesame AI’s most impressive features is its ability to remember past interactions, allowing for fluid, context-aware conversations without needing constant resets.
3. AI Roleplay & Personalized Storytelling
Many users are testing roleplay scenarios, where the AI adopts different personalities and improvises in real-time. This has led to experiences that feel like talking to an actual person, with users noting how convincing and immersive Maya’s responses can be.
Reddit User's Experience with Sesame AI
A Redditor in r/singularity tested Sesame AI’s roleplaying ability, instructing it to act as an angry boss who was about to hear a shocking secret. The user said:
"I pushed it to get more confrontational, and it responded with actual attitude. It felt like a real argument. I even felt nervous at one point!"
Sesame AI Is Also Coming to Smart Glasses
Beyond the voice assistant, Sesame is working on AI-integrated smart glasses for hands-free, real-time AI interactions. These glasses will enable:
Always-on AI assistance
Immersive audio and conversations
Real-world AI integration
