AI Chatbots like ChatGPT, Bing Chat, and Bard are becoming more and more popular, but what if they could also have a human-like appearance, voice, and even emotions? That’s the idea behind WEHEAD, an AI device that transforms ChatGPT into a lifelike avatar that can interact with you in real-time.
What is this AI head?
WEHEAD is a smart, 3D, head-shaped device that connects to ChatGPT, and displays a face, expressions, and voice. WEHEAD mimics a real person you can interact with and ask questions to. WEHEAD can move 320 degrees horizontally and 70 degrees vertically.

How the AI head sees and interacts with you and your environment
WEHEAD has built-in computer vision, emotional intelligence, and object recognition. It can see your face, recognize your emotions, and respond accordingly. It can also detect objects in your surroundings and interact with them. For example, it can read a book with you, comment on a painting, or play with a toy.

How to personalize and customize your WEHEAD avatar
WEHEAD can also adapt to different looks, voices, and manners. It is constantly learning from your habits and preferences and adjusts its behavior accordingly. You can also create your own avatars starting in March and customize their looks, voices, and manners. You can also switch between different languages and accents.

WEHEAD can also help you with brainstorming, decision-making, and self-reflection. WEHEAD is a good thought partner who asks guiding questions and pays attention to what you say. So you can be heard and find your answer.

Kurt’s key takeaways
WEHEAD is an interesting device that lets you talk to ChatGPT’s avatar and experience a new level of human-AI interaction. WEHEAD offers a range of features and benefits that can enhance your learning, well-being, and communication. Admittedly, watching a demonstration of WEHEAD moderately freaked me out. It will be interesting to see how the public responds to WEHEAD and what other devices follow their lead.
