Whisper can transcribe in <100ms. We then wait for the turn detection model, LLM, and tts to trigger a streamed response back to eh client.
Also, we prefer the eleven labs voices, but there is definitely varying quality. I'm guessing later this year or next, the voice to voice models will become good enough, and we will switch over.
You can delete your account at any time to fully wipe all your data, but there is no way to delete sessions ATM.
We've done a lot of testing on Spanish, English, Italian, Japanese, and French, but much less on the others and none at all for some of the niche ones.
The language support is based on the intersection of the languages that have low word errors rates in the transcribers, as well as officially supported by LLM/TTS (like gpt4.1, eleven labs etc).
We've seen the models' quality improve consistently over the last 6 months, in all languages we tested, and now the error rates are getting really low.

Try to come up with a system that has more decentralized governance than Bitcoin.
The core developers in bitcoin don't have all the power. Coinbase doesn't have all the Power. Each user doesn't have all the power. Miners either (if they abuse their power, POW function can be changed)
So basically while bitcoin governance is not perfectly decentralized, its much better than anything else.
You can try to come up with a system where people vote. But the votes have to be collected and analyzed somewhere, centrally. So you still have central governance.
So yes, while 100% solving governance would make bitcoin useless, bitcoin can improve governance (compared to federal Reserve, for example), while providing a lot of value from this decentralization.

Many people think that companies should be kind, and pay more than the market wage for their workers. This is false and unreasonable. Companies try to minimize their costs, including wages.
Now if in some industry, some company is making huge profit margins, and paying low wages, what is the cause, and what is the solution? In economics, profits go down until they reach 0 or close to 0. Why? because if there are huge profit margins, more firms come in, to compete. Therefore in all industries, profits go down to a lower level.
Now why doesn't this happen in practice? The answer is artificial barriers to entry. Political agreements and regulations benefiting the big companies. So what is needed here is an easier path for new companies (Which are people after all). This will always ensure that profit margins stay low, and wages approach the true market rate.
The solution is not donation. Why would a company pay 9 dollars to a worker who is willing to work for 8? Why aren't YOU donating money to poor people in Africa? The answer is not minimum wage either. This distorts markets. If you want to alleviate poverty, in a more economically reasonable way, do it though universal income.
