LIZHI’s Social App TIYA Upgrades MY AI FRIEND Chatbot with New ‘Animated Avatar’ Feature
This is the latest addition to TIYA’s suite of chatbot features, including AI-generated voice technology and preset companions
GUANGZHOU, China, July 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (“LIZHI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LIZI), an audio-based social and entertainment company, has launched a new expressive “Animated Avatar” feature for users’ customized MY AI FRIEND chatbot with the latest update to its global social networking platform (“TIYA”).
The new “Animated Avatar” feature for TIYA’s MY AI FRIEND chatbot provides animated and expressive AI-generated faces to users’ customized AI companions, further enhancing real-time conversations and fostering a deeper emotional connection between users and their AI companions.
Leveraging the LIZHI Group’s innovations with AI-generated voice technology, all TIYA users can now also use voice chat with their customized MY AI FRIEND chatbot. This feature more effectively conveys emotions online, helping AI companions’ responses be more natural and fitting for different situations.
Earlier in May, LIZHI had launched virtual AI preset companions for TIYA’s MY AI FRIEND chatbot, spanning characters such as musician DJ Fresh and game consultant Alex Marshall. Each preset companion has a unique personality that caters to the diverse needs and interests of TIYA users. These companions provide users with unique socializing options and supplement TIYA’s existing MY AI FRIEND chatbot features, which already enable users to create and customize their own exclusive AI friends.
LIZHI is committed to exploring the boundless possibilities of AI technology, especially for online companionship and fulfilling users’ social needs. The Company plans to continue developing its AI features to provide users with better AI-based emotional companionship and a richer online, interactive social experience.
