@kwindla @arjunram @pipecat_ai We had fun navigating this. Although we couldn't get it across the line for the hackathon, I can definitely see some great use cases. Ideal would be to plug in the framework and then just swap where the action happens. Can even imagine switching between local/remote services

I do think the next "big architecture" thinking we should do (collectively, as a community) for Pipecat is what the right abstractions are for local/cloud hybrid. Pipecat 1.0 was all about getting the voice-to-voice latency, reliability, multi-modal frame types, interruption handling, phrase endpointing, flexible pipeline architecture, ability to use several models, ability to easily switch between models, etc to be really rock solid. Pipecat 2.0 was about how you "drive" a real-time AI pipeline from a client with events/actions and LLM function calling. (See docs.rtvi.ai/introduction for an open spec for defining introspectible "services" and "actions" for real-time AI.) Pipecat 3.0 probably should be about local/cloud hybrid use cases. I was talking a little bit about that to @altryne, @JunaidDawud, and @deploydan during the hackathon last week. They were building a "local only" voice/vision pipeline for their robot. Even though we have a local transport type in Pipecat, it wasn't quite the right shape for the (really cool) thing they were building.

The text-to-speech and speech-to-text services in @pipecat_ai now support voice-to-voice LLM conversational AI in 79 languages. People "outside the AI world" often ask me how much of the hype about AI is real. One of the things I always say is that the global, multi-lingual, and translation capabilities of AI models are a big, big deal. The Internet collapsed distance globally, but doesn't bridge language gaps and for a long time was very English-language-centric. I'm heartened, this time around, that a lot of people are doing a lot of great work training models in a lot of languages.

Second Place?! Our trash talking chef may not be the standard use case for advanced robotic technology but the fact is we couldn't have done it without the SO-ARM100 by @therobotstudio and the @huggingface @LeRobotHF library by @RemiCadene Let's Go!

Second place: Foul-mouthed robot chef Abitious hackathon robot build and some seriously funny prompt engineering. SO-ARM 100 + Raspberry Pi + Porcupine wake word + @GoogleAI Gemini Vision + @cartesia TTS with a custom voice + @weights_biases Weave. By @altryne, @JunaidDawud, and @deploydan

@bate5a55 @altryne I would not recommend letting this thing get anywhere near food (and let's be real it's probably going to try and throw it on the floor anyways)

@altryne Exciting project! Fun fact: 3D printing food-safe components for robotics involves navigating strict FDA regulations. Curious how you tackled material compliance in your design.

Team Yes Chef is happy to present: Robotic chef AI puppet that cooks you while cook 🧑‍🍳 (our submission to the Conversational Voice AI Hackathon 🤞) We had such a blast making this one, from ideation to 3D printing, to experimental hardware, 👇 a breakdown and repro steps

Assembling the pieces took a while, but so does figuring out how to actually control whatever we wanted to do. See the @LeRobotHF SO-ARM100 is still experimental, huge shoutout to @RemiCadene who was updating the library as we were building!

@altryne @wandb I'm well aware observability is useful but this project really made me see how much value Weave can add. Super impressed! The multimodal piece was wild to see in action. Thank you @wandb!

We used @wandb Weave to track not only the LLM text, but also the images and the audio, as Weave is one of the first observability platforms that supports those modalities in the same table! Here's our Weave dashboard with some sick 🔞 burns wandb.ai/wandb/yes-chef…

We just passed 5⃣0⃣0⃣ sign-ups for the Open Source Real-time Voice and Video AI Hackathon this weekend. It's not too late to sign-up and join the fun — in SF and remote on Discord. Now is a great time to thank our volunteer judges for joining us on Sunday to check out all the projects (and to award the $20,000 in *cash* prizes.) @jheitzeb — global organizer of AI Tinkerers, founder, ai wrangler @aerbitsai — bringing ai video to life at Tavus @lizziepika — dev advocate and ai accelerator at Cloudflare @charles_irl — ai engineer extraordinaire at Modal @khushkhushkhush — investor at A* Adarsh Sivadas — Google & Cloud at Google @nehiljain — founder of DemoDrive AI @hackgoofer — stealth startup founder (and winner of 7 hackathons in the last ~year, so it's lucky for the rest of us she's a judge this time)
