What if the future of digital interaction is driven by AI assistants capable of handling not just text, but voice and visual inputs too?


Alvaro Cintas, a professor and researcher who specializes in AI and cybersecurity, recently posted a compelling video on X, offering a glimpse of ChatGPT's potential at the AI Engineer World's Fair 2024. The video captures a demonstration by Romain Huet, Head of Developer Experience at OpenAI, showcasing the capabilities of an advanced ChatGPT model. This presentation, part of the Keynotes & Multimodality track, offered a fascinating look into the future of AI-human interaction and its potential to transform various aspects of our digital lives.


Here’s what Romain shared in his session with ChatGPT:


  • Introducing ChatGPT: Romain highlighted the role of ChatGPT as a powerful AI model with advanced multimodal interaction features.

  • Interactive Demo: In real-time, ChatGPT greeted the audience with energy and enthusiasm, engaging both live and virtual participants.

  • Showcasing Features: Romain walked through ChatGPT’s ability to handle images, text, and voice inputs, showing off its versatility.

  • Future Improvements: The discussion touched on upcoming updates in AI technology aimed at improving developer tools and AI’s overall functionality.



At the AI Engineer World’s Fair 2024, software engineers and AI enthusiasts gathered for keynotes, workshops, and discussions on the future of AI. As part of this larger event, Romain’s demonstration gave a real sense of the direction AI is headed in: multimodal, more intuitive, and ready to become an even more integral part of our daily lives. The fair itself featured nine tracks, ranging from generative AI to leadership sessions, giving attendees a chance to deepen their knowledge and sharpen their skills.


The future of AI assistance looks promising, but it's a future we'll need to shape carefully. As these technologies continue to evolve, they'll likely become an increasingly integral part of our personal and professional lives.
