An omni model seems very useful for real-time human-computer interaction, off the top of my head:
- Voice assistants
- Customer experience
- Gaming
- Meeting assistants
- Real-time coach or user assistant for using software
- Translation
- Real-time work on a computer controlled by voice (frontend / mobile dev, CAD, 3D modeling, etc)
Traditionally a lot of these use cases with LLM agents are higher latency because the model needs to wait for the speaker to finish, then decide to call a tool or respond - if they call a tool they need to process the tool result and decide if they want to call a tool or respond, etc...
