Transcript’s clean. Agent still got it wrong.
Some of the worst voice AI bugs hide in the handoffs between components, where one small disconnect derails everything.
6 days to #DeepgramSpeak, Oct. 29 in SF. Attendees get $500 in Deepgram credits: deepgram.com/speak#registrat…

Models aren’t what’s holding voice AI back, says @jordan_dearsley. Distribution is.
The @Vapi_AI CEO joins @deepgramscott to dig into that, plus what devs are still struggling to build with voice.

“That’s fine.”
Agreement? Frustration? Text alone can't tell you.
Tone, pauses, and history all change what users mean. At #DeepgramSpeak (Oct. 29, SF), we’re digging into how voice agents can keep up.

Want a peek of what’s to come at #DeepgramSpeak? @covaldev’s @bnicholehopkins and @kwindla of @trydaily caught up ahead of the big day to chat about what it’ll take to build better voice agents.

Deepgram is hosting a voice agents developer conference in San Francisco on October 29th. I'm speaking at the conference, we have some fun Pipecat announcements to make, and lots of friends are either attending, or speaking, or both.
I figured this was an opportunity to record some conversations with people in the voice AI ecosystem about what they're interested in right now, what they're talking about at Speak, and what's new since we last caught up.
@bnicholehopkins, founder of @covaldev, has been building simulation and testing tools for voice agents since 2024. Before Coval, Brooke worked on simulation tooling at Waymo.
Brooke and I riffed about how deployments of enterprise voice AI are growing incredibly fast right now, how we think about building with open source components and models, applying systems engineering principles to agentic AI development, and aiming for "self-improving agent loops."
I've been experimenting with prompting Opus to create motion graphics and video effects. A discerning 11-year old of my acquaintance called the result, here, "kind of cringe." But I kind of like it. See what you think. :-)

Drive-thru noise. Dinner-rush phone lines. Orders full of modifiers. Restaurants are a tough test for voice AI.
At #Speak26 on Oct. 29, @toasttab’s Steve Brewer will share how Toast is approaching voice and AI agents.

I'll be at Deepgram Speak on October 29th with 500 or so new and old friends who build voice AI agents and applications. As mini embedded Pipecat and I were just discussing, I'm really excited about Deepgram Speak.
We're working on some very fun Pipecat stuff for the conference. If you're interested in models for realtime AI, building production voice agents, or what the future holds for voice and AI-native software, please join us in San Francisco.

"Four years is enough time to earn a full bachelor's degree. It's an entire presidential term. It's the time an athlete gets to train from one Olympic Games to the next. In other words, four years is a long time.
And in a place like Silicon Valley, where it's normal to switch companies every year or so, staying anywhere that long gets noticed. People ask about it. Recruiters ask about it. My friends definitely ask about it. "You're still at Deepgram?"
Yes, I am. So here's why I've stayed."

As AI agents get more capable, safety becomes a systems problem. What can they access, do, and decide?
Our CEO @deepgramscott joined @mishindan1 and @gsivulka on @jason’s @ThisWeeknAI to talk about guardrails and the infrastructure behind useful AI. piped.video/watch?v=FnVyEYKc…
