This girl-like digital avatar is actually a major breakthrough in artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
Tong Tong (meaning little girl) has been named the world’s first AI child, developed by Chinese scientists.
Scientists from the Beijing Institute of Artificial General Intelligence (BIGAI) developed it and said that this AI girl is able to learn things on her own and explore her environment.
They even claim that Tong Tong can also express emotions.
He added that Tong Tong can express happiness, anger or sadness like a 3-year-old girl.
This child of AI was presented at an AI conference in Beijing.
TongTong does not have a robot-like body but has the ability to interact with people in the real world while living in a virtual environment.
During this conference, people also talked to Tong Tong and asked him to do some work.
But its particularity is to assume responsibility for various tasks.
AI chatbots like ChatGPT or others respond when asked to do something and are not capable of doing it on their own.
It is not yet clear how autonomous TongTong is, but according to scientists, it is more autonomous than other AI models.
