Forward deployed engineer question: A UK energy retailer's voice agent takes 2.8s (p95) to reply. The time goes to: 700ms waiting for silence 300ms transcription 600ms to first token 1.2s on a billing API, then TTS synthesises the whole reply before playing Optimise this?

half of that is just waiting in line. stream tts per sentence, and pull the billing data the moment the call connects, you know the account way before they finish asking. the 700ms silence wait can drop a lot with a turn detection model too

the edge that you have as an SME is the contextual understanding if you publish them for free the model companies will democratize it w/o your consent

So the speed limit is 144 kmph
🚨 “I have directed my officials to allow speed limits of up to 120 kmph on expressways and only issue challans if the speed limit exceeds 20% higher than this." - Nitin Gadkari.

Yes, the story is mostly done.
Feel bad for the developers in India. They're basically done. The number of messages/emails I get trying to desperately sell their services. Persistent. Companies with no actual product to offer but the ability to code quickly and cheaply. No idea why anyone would choose them now. We could add call centres into that too.
