Live from the A.R.I. Lab

Ask Benjamin Franklin

This is not a prerecorded animation. Benjamin hears your question, processes it through a private AI pipeline running on A.R.I. Lab hardware, generates a response, and speaks back in real time through a synchronized 3D avatar. Ask about NEC Consult, the A.R.I. Lab, private AI, model evaluation, enterprise integration, or a workflow you are considering for AI.

The Story Behind A.R.I. — A.R.I. stands for Artificial Relative Intelligence. The lab was named in memory of Michael Friedberg's brother, Ari, whose life and work inspired its creation. An optional memorial experience — an authorized AI representation created from family-owned recordings — tells the story in his own voice. Hear the Story of A.R.I. from Ari →

Benjamin is an AI-generated historical interpretation. His appearance, voice, and responses are synthetic and are not authentic recordings or statements by Benjamin Franklin. Microphone audio is used only during the live session and is not retained. The live avatar pipeline is operated from the actual A.R.I. Lab near West Chester, Pennsylvania.
