Nine months ago, Daniel Anstandig attracted widespread attention with the launch by his company, Futuri, of an AI-fueled product named RadioGPT.
It was marketed as the world’s first AI-driven localized radio content tool and combined the elements of GPT-3 technology with Futuri’s AI-driven targeted story discovery and social content system, TopicPulse.
Now, RadioGPT is no more, as it now integrates multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) while forging partnerships with new AI voice companies ElevenLabs, PlayHT, and Resemble AI. And, Futuri is opening the system up to television and other non-radio media companies.
“Futuri’s rapid advancements in technology have enabled it to add new and enhanced features that make the evolved Futuri AudioAI system more powerful for radio and accessible to other forms of media,” the company said in marketing literature distributed last week, in which its enhanced features and new capabilities were shared.
The biggest takeaway, however, is that Futuri AudioAI’s integration of multiple LLMs brings abilities that go beyond the GPT-4 integration that was a component of RadioGPT. “Using multiple LLMs means the content Futuri AudioAI delivers is even stronger, and it better enables Futuri to improve the system continuously,” the company says.
One example of the improved product resulting from the product upgrade are weather reports, Futuri says.
The company notes that the Futuri AudioAI rollout follows the July 2023 launch of SpotOn, which delivers end-to-end production — original scripts, music, and voiceover — for radio and television broadcasters seeking to streamline the production of promos, spec spots, and commercials.
