Developer Anh Phu Nguyen demos Thud, billed as the first Audio Action Model: it listens, picks an action, and executes it in 200ms — claimed to be 10× faster and 20× cheaper than Gemini Live. The demo shows Thud opening apps, navigating menus, and sending messages by voice, driving his Mira smart glasses entirely through speech. The author adds that Thud runs fully locally with no cloud dependency.
