Current Project: Reading books about entrepreneurs and sharing what I learned from them

Mission: Create a library of wisdom from notable entrepreneurs that current entrepreneurs can leverage to increase their chances of success

What I struggled with:

• No material struggles last week

What I learned:

• Last week I shared what I learned about Pipecat and Livekit, two open-source orchestration frameworks that can be used to build real-time voice and multimodal AI agents (see here). This week I learned about turn detection: “determining when a user begins or ends their ‘turn’ in a conversation.” Turn detection makes for polite AI conversations—AI and the user don’t talk over each other because the AI waits until the person is done before it speaks.
• The best conversations between entrepreneurs aren’t polite. They’re high-energy. Ideas are shared rapid fire. One entrepreneur’s idea sparks more ideas from the other. They interrupt each other. They talk over one another. These types of conversations, replicated using the above frameworks and paired with a library of knowledge from biographies and other books, could lead to entrepreneurs having great thinking or sparring sessions with AI.

That’s what I learned and struggled with last week.
