Currently it does: all audio is sent to the model.
However, we are working on turn detection within the framework, so you won't have to send silence to the model when the user isn't talking. It's a fairly straight forward path to cutting down the cost by ~50%.
- rukuu001 2y agoWorking on this for an internal tool - detecting no speech has been a PITA so far. Interested to see how you go with this.
- balloob 2y agoUse the voice activity detector we wrote for Home Assistant. It works very well: https://github.com/rhasspy/pymicro-vad https://github.com/rhasspy/pymicro-vad

- davidz 2y agocurrently we are using silero VAD to detect speech: https://github.com/livekit/agents/blob/main/livekit-plugins/livekit-plugins-silero/livekit/plugins/silero/vad.py https://github.com/livekit/agents/blob/main/livekit-plugins/... it works well for voice activity; though it doesn't always detect end-of-turn correctly (humans often pause mid-sentence to think). we are working on improving this behavior.
- pj_mukh 2y agoCan I currently put a VAD module in the pipeline and only send audio when there is an active conversation? Feel like just that would solve the problem?
