LINE is linking its Clova AI with the skills and conversational patterns of Gatebox’s original avatar, Azuma Hikari, to provide a realistic holographic assistant that can help with everything from checking the weather to providing intelligent conversation. As Clova's voice synthesis and the conversation engine are virtually as sophisticated as it gets to talking with a real person, LINE details that conversing with Clova is like "having a lively conversation with a voice actor."
Notably, as people have already become familiar with the character of Azuma Hikari, information that is relayed through the Clova AI assistant is passed through a second character that hovers next to the avatar, creating an experience that doesn't impede on either character's unique charms.
