Summary

Melvin Vivas shares a quoted announcement of Persimmon. It's described as the first large-scale model built to realistically simulate how people talk and interact, on the idea that AI has to understand people to work with them. The post has no commentary beyond "Interesting new model", and the video has no speech, so it's mainly a pointer to a new model to watch.

Key points

• Persimmon is announced as the first large-scale model designed to realistically simulate how people talk and interact.
• The announcement's idea: for AI to work with us, it needs to understand us.
• The post doesn't name the company behind it or give technical details, benchmarks or access info. Look up the original announcement for those.
• Don't mix it up with Adept's older open-source Persimmon-8B language model (2023). The post gives no sign that the two are related.
