Beating AI News Flash: AI video firm Tavus has launched Griffin, billed as the first Human Interaction Model focused on real-time face-to-face communication. Griffin can see and listen while speaking, reacting in real time to the other party’s expressions, movements, and pauses, and pauses immediately if a user interrupts mid-sentence. Tavus recruited 54 participants from the U.S. and Europe to hold 1-minute video calls with Griffin-Lite, without disclosing in advance that the counterpart was an AI. The result: 26 participants, or 48%, believed they had chatted with a real person. By comparison, Tavus’ prior generation model Phoenix-4.5 saw only 1 out of 41 participants (2.4%) make the same judgment error in a similar test. Tavus thus claims Griffin is the first model to pass the "real-time video Turing Test". However, the test was self-organized by Tavus with a sample size of just 54, and no larger independent replication has been conducted to date. Griffin-Lite also topped NVIDIA’s VideoFDB full-duplex audio-video evaluation, scoring 3.83/5, close to the human benchmark of 3.92. The previous highest public baseline, Gemini 2.5 + Anam, scored 2.80. Griffin-Lite is currently only available to a small group of testers and has not yet been officially offered to regular customers.

Investors in Trump’s personal meme coin TRUMP will get another chance to meet the U.S. President in person, marking the third such event following two previous ones. The prior events faced criticism from Democratic lawmakers, who accused them of corrupt acts that openly profited from the White House’s influence. According to the website managing TRUMP-related events, the first 185 registered investors will be invited to attend the event at Trump National Private Club in Washington D.C. on November 22. Organizers said VIP eligibility will be determined by investors’ engagement with the token and will be locked in on November 12.
