ACTx486 research demo turns any podcast video into one you can talk to
karinanguyen · x · 2026-09-24
A research demo called ACTx486 explores a new interactive medium: what if you could talk to any video and ask anything? The team took an existing podcast and transformed it into a system that listens, responds, and adapts in real time. Built as research by @jakubzegzulka, it's positioned as a demo of a possible interactive format rather than a shipping product, but it hints at conversational video as a medium beyond passive playback.
