🚦 #LiveKit released a transformers-based, semantic End-of-Turn detector, #opensource on #HuggingFace[1]! This model complements voice activity detectors (#VAD) by predicting whether the user's sentence is complete. This helps reduce false starts up to 85% according to their own testing, and is text-based, with a very low latency (~50ms). Find all the details in their post [2].
