realmrfakename · x · 2026-10-18
A forwarded demo of Robi, an open-eared German/English voice companion. It auto-detects language (Tyger/Nemotron for English, experimental Tyger+Parakeet for German), thinks with Gemma 4 12B or Qwen3.8 27B, speaks via Humaneness Voice Small RL (temp 0.7, CFG 2) with per-sentence direction for expressions and 4-second emotion memory. Camera-driven eye contact works even during pauses, sessions run up to 30 minutes, and raw recordings are deleted after server-side processing.
