Thank you.

Thanks, as a builder and a craftsman, I really appreciate that.

Thank you for trying it out, and I'm so pleased that it is working for you. I've had such an improvement in my outcomes on conversations with sparrow-two.

Yeah, I can relate to that. Maybe it's also because you are too shy to ask someone to dance. I think I learned that lesson: just ask, and be unafraid to fail. Things tend to work themselves out. Much of this is experimentation. I think our models need to be open to that: which is one cool thing about Sparrow-1: it's a meta-in-context learner. This means that when it try's and fails, or you try and fail, it learns at runtime to adapt.

Ah good question: Yes, ASR stands for Automatic Speech Recognition.

It's unfortunate though, because Anthropic LLMs and ecosystem is the best IMHO. Tavus (we) and Anthropic should form a partnership.

The one thing that really surprised me, the thing I learned that's affected my conversational abilities the most: turn taking in conversation is a negotiation: there are no set rules. There are protocols: - bids - holds / stays - implications (semantic / prosodic)

But then the actual flow of the conversation is deeply semantic in the best conversations, and the rules are very much a "dance" or a negotiation between partners.

I use Claude Code for everything, and I love Anthropic's models. I don't know why, but it wasn't until reading this that I realized: I can use Sparrow-1 with Anthropic's models within CVI. Adding this to my todo list.
