Another significant challenge mentioned is interruption handling, where existing models, including "4o," struggle to manage interruptions effectively, especially during extended conversations. The author notes that after about two minutes of dialogue, even a single interruption can cause confusion in the system's responses. These challenges underscore the need for improved models and systems to enhance the quality and reliability of voice agents.
Key takeaways:
- Voice to voice technology shows promise but still lacks quality, with models underperforming compared to 4o.
- Livekit is popular for building voice agents, though its necessity is unclear.
- Interruption handling remains a challenge, with existing models struggling after prolonged conversation and interruptions.
- Even advanced models like 4o experience confusion during interruptions after extended dialogue.
