Voice Agent Architecture May Be Poised for a Shift
ZainHasan6 · x · 2026-07-16
The author suggests this model may redefine voice agent architecture:
- Traditional pipeline: STT → LLM → TTS.
- New approach: Possibly LLM → TTS, as the model can directly process audio tokens.
- Potential benefits include better WER accuracy, lower latency, and reduced information loss during transcription.
