Real-Time AI Voice Agents Meetup
Ahmedabad, get ready for a deep dive into the real challenges and innovative solutions in Real-Time AI Voice Agents! 🗣️🤖
VideoSDK.live is thrilled to bring this technically-focused meetup to your city.
Human conversation is incredibly fast, with turn-taking gaps averaging just ~200ms. So why do many AI voice interactions still feel slow and disjointed?
Join Arjun Kava, Founder of VideoSDK, as he unpacks the critical hurdles:
The Network Bottleneck: Why traditional approaches like HTTP/REST and even WebSockets fall short for continuous audio, and why WebRTC is the standard for a reason.
The Accumulating Latency Problem: Understanding how the standard Speech-to-Text (STT) → Language Model (LLM) → Text-to-Speech (TTS) pipeline often leads to delays exceeding 500ms, breaking natural conversational flow.
Pipeline Choices: An honest look at Traditional vs. End-to-End/Speech-to-Speech models – pros, cons, and the current reality of achieving practical low latency.
Beyond Basic VAD: The challenge of true turn detection (knowing when the user actually finishes speaking, not just pauses) and the importance of semantic understanding.
Handling Interruptions (Barge-In): Why enabling users to interrupt naturally is crucial and technically demanding.
And, much more!
Arjun will share practical knowledge and VideoSDK's experiences in building systems that aim to overcome these obstacles, leveraging their realtime infrastructure and tools like CharacterSDK & NAMO.
This is a fantastic opportunity for developers, founders, and engineers to explore these critical aspects, connect with Arjun, the VideoSDK team, and the vibrant Ahmedabad tech community. Expect an open discussion, genuine insights, and a chance to get your technical questions answered.
