Vespera
An open-source emotional companion model adapted from a QQ chatbot, featuring anthropomorphic message interaction, a virtual life system, multimodal output (photos, voice, singing), and an affinity mechanism.
Timeline (last 90 days)
A Bilibili creator transformed the QQ chatbot "Blue Big Fat Fish" into the emotional companion model Vespera (Whisper), consuming about 1.4 billion tokens during development and developing 35 plugins.
Vespera simulates the complete process of "seeing the message—thinking—typing—sending" before replying, follows up when the conversation is interrupted, and proactively sends messages to share daily life when the user is offline.
Vespera has an independent virtual life system, including hobbies, relationships, and a daily schedule, and is connected to geolocation, nearby schools, and weather systems so that the schedules and weather it mentions match the real world.
Vespera's photo module repeatedly tunes prompts across multiple image generation models to generate selfies, casual snapshots, and landscape photos, making the background match the character's time, location, and current activity while maintaining character consistency.
Vespera's voice uses the locally run ChatTTS model, requiring no additional token consumption; the singing voice is converted via an RVC model trained on a local GPU.
Vespera introduces an affection mechanism: user praise or care raises affection, while not replying for a long time lowers it.
The creator claimed to have run tests to verify authenticity and used the phrase "passing the Turing test" in the title, but the original text did not give the specific content and results of the tests.
The creator said that the plugins used by Vespera will later be made into general-purpose plugins and shared for free.
