For the Olympics,
call Coubertin by video
on your smartphone
(or rather his AI Avatar)

Prepare for a timeless experience powered by AI: meet Pierre de Coubertin's Conversational Avatar.
This application / smartphones allows you to speak in several languages and explore with him the history of the Olympic Games, through an original Visio through time and space.

Effigy developed this application for the Paris Games; connected to ChatGPT 4, the discussion is extremely fluid, as long as you have a decent network (Wi-Fi or telephone network). The LLM was trained on the essential history of the games between 1896 and 1924 (about 30 pages of text), and fed with a hundred period photos which illustrate the words of our Coubertin.
Her photorealistic avatar was created in 3D sculpting from period photos, and her voice modeled from the only available original recording, a speech from 1924. And the staging was treated like a period photo. So, we really feel like we're on a call with someone from 1900.

A second version of Coubertin, more stylized (= technically lighter) is being integrated into a WebGL app = less qualitative visual <> minimal server cost.
