This seems interesting! How are you dealing with hallucination? e.g. recalling a fact from an article that I have not necessarily read

thanks!!

thanks da :)

thanks!! obviously there's a lot of stuff we need to do to make this run at scale that Alexa has down pat.

A Home Assistant integration is a great idea! would love to talk with you on our Discord[0] about this / over email ( ajay at vocode.dev ), it's something we definitely want to build.

here's one from Twitter! https://twitter.com/altryne/status/1640880190401257473?s=20

thank you!! we also have another number which is prompted to act as a spokesperson for the product: (650) 835-7163

Ah, got it — that demo is a bit old and definitely has some bugs, my bad!

sorry you had that experience! Would love to help you get the bot running locally so we can figure out what's going on — here's our Discord: https://discord.gg/NaU4mMgcnC

would love to help you get it running as well! https://discord.gg/NaU4mMgcnC

The short answer is that everything is streaming — as tokens come back from ChatGPT we send them as soon as possible to the synthesizer. The long answer is found in our code[0] :).

thanks! we have a more "informational" phone number at +19105862633 that speaks a little slower (but sounds more robotic).

thanks!! Sampling rate actually shouldn't affect talking speed - you can adjust the voice speed with this parameter[0] :)

also! the code for the demo is available (and running!) at https://replit.com/@vocode/Gen-Z-Phone

thank you!! websockets have been around forever but they're still so fast.

thank you!! The difference between a conversation with a command-based assistant and a conversational assistant backed by a LLM is subtly significant — you don't expect to have real conversations with the former and you actually engage with the latter.

Thanks! It's a collab with rime.ai TTS. Unlike a lot of other TTS providers, they train on conversation, not podcasts/audiobooks so you get those disfluencies in speech that make it seem natural!

Home Assistant is such a cool project :) great idea!
