Even as someone really AI-forwards, there are just not enough selling points for me here. I almost never want to talk to an AI. I just don’t believe I’ll have a useful voice interaction. Maybe agents are here to fix that, but theres 30 years of really negative precedent from robot telephone bots to overcome, and I don’t think some new API is going to change that overnight
I almost never want to talk to an AI, because text is better for almost anything. But it's nice to have that "almost" corner case covered, no?
Not to mention all the current "telephone bots" applications that could benefit from something that has actual reliable STT and can accurately grasp a number you tell it first try, or hear a natural language description of what you want and immediately bypass listing the entire menu of options one by one.
I can’t tell if you are being serious or sarcastic. Assuming you are being real, and as someone who has to listen to boring youtube videos to help falling asleep, i have a few questions: how long is the story? What happens after the story ends? Like, does it turn off the voice feature or does it stay on and randomly speaks during the night?
hah I just tried it a few times. You have to choose a voice you like (Spruce for me) and then tell it continue a scene or chapter from one of your favorite books
Like for me it's the part in The Wind in the Willows where they're on the cart, before Toad becomes a car fanboy. I asked ChatGPT to stretch that part and make them stay on the road for longer, and it kinda did an OK job tbh
