Shawn Wang and Kwindla Hultman Kramer announce a voice AI masterclass course, diving into the landscape of models like Dia and Parakeet, production deployment challenges, and future trends such as speech-to-speech and real-time video. Kwindla explains that telephony (Twilio) drives 99% of current monetizable voice AI, while open source frameworks like Pipecat enable low-latency multi-modal apps. The course covers turn detection, context management, and evals, with 28 sessions featuring partners like OpenAI, Google, and NVIDIA. The goal is to jumpstart builders from prototype to production, with real-time video expected to hit its inflection point by year-end.
