The "Not Ben" AI Avatar Concept
The centerpiece of notbens.ai. A Tavus-powered video avatar of Ben that:
- Greets visitors with "Hi, I'm Not Ben"
- Can have live video conversations about AI consulting
- Serves as both a demo of capabilities AND a memorable brand moment
- Ties the whole joke together — the AI version of Ben is literally "Not Ben"
