Here’s looking at you, AI! Eye contact is crucial in any successful face-to-face interaction, and if you thought you could escape it in the age of remote work and talking behind a screen, the Wehead GPT Edition commands, “Hey, eyes up here.”

Not only can you have heart-to-heart chats with artificial intelligence, but you can also interact with one who can peer back at you and maybe even nod along to your stories. And if you get nervous, the age-old trick is to look between the eyes.

This desktop device offers a variety of avatars for users to interact with, each bringing its personality to your conversations. There’s a digital buddy for everyone, from the friendly ‘Luna’ to the zesty ‘Zetta’, and even a jock-like ‘Bro’ who punctuates his sentences with—you guessed it—“bro.”

The Wehead GPT Edition is equipped with cameras allowing the AI to “see” users, enhancing interaction with movements like nods and tilts that mimic human responses.

Engage with it as you would ChatGPT—ask it questions, get it to help you make decisions, or simply bond over a reflective chat after a long day. With UHD LED screens, a motorized neck for fluid movements, and spatial voice recognition, the Wehead GPT brings a futuristic vibe to any space.

All told, cutting-edge comes with a price tag. The Wehead GPT Edition is available for a hefty US$4,950, or if you’re just looking to dip your toes into digital companionship, a monthly rental is available at US$199.

Give it a couple of years and you may soon find that your closest confidant is one who always has a seat at the table.
