    As I know we all find this funny, this is also fantastic.

    With the use of agents bound to grow, this removes the need for TTS and STT meaning no power hungry GPU in the mix. A low-power microprocessor can handle this kind of communication.

      If they had I would have welcomed any potential AI overlords. I want a massive dial up in the middle of town, sounding its boot signal across the land. Idk this was an odd image I felt like I should share it…

    Nice to know we finally developed a way for computers to communicate by shrieking at each other. Give it a few years and if they can get the latency down we may even be able to play Doom over this!

    And before you know it, the helpful AI has booked an event where Boris and his new spouse can eat pizza with glue in it and swallow rocks for dessert.

    Uhm, REST/GraphQL APIs exist for this very purpose and are considerably faster.

    Note, the AI still gets stuck in a loop near the end asking for more info, needing an email, then needing a phone number, and the gibber isn’t that much faster than spoken word with the huge negative that no nearby human can understand it to check that what it’s automating is correct!

      The efficiency comes from the lack of voice processing. The beeps and boops are easier on CPU resources than trying to parse spoken word.

      That said, they should just communicate over an API like you said.

    Did this guy just inadvertently create dial up internet or ACH phone payment system?

    This is dumb. Sorry.

    Instead of doing the work to integrate this, do the work to publish your agent’s data source in a format like anthropic’s model context protocol.

    That would be 1000 times more efficient and the same amount (or less) of effort.

    How much faster was it? I was reading along with the gibber and not losing any time

      GibberLink could obviously go faster. It’s certainly being slowed down so that the people watching could understand what was going on.

        I would hope so, but as a demonstration, it wasn’t very impressive. They should have left subtitles up transcripting everything

      I think it is more about ambiguity. It is easier for a computer to intepret set tones and modulations than human speech.

      Like telephone numbers being tied to specific tones. Instead of the system needing to keep track of the many languages and accents that a ‘6’ can be spoken by.

        That could be, even just considering one language to parse from. I heard efficiency and just thought speed

      Oh man, I thought the same. I never saw the movie but I read the trilogy. I stumbled across them in a used book fair and something made me want to get them. I thoroughly enjoyed them.

    Reminds me of insurance office I worked in. Some of the staff were brain dead.

    • Print something
    • Scribble some notes on the print out
    • Fax that annotated paper or scan and email it to someone
    • Whine about how you’re out of printer toner.
