Yeah, I wish there was an option to verbally cue that you were finished talking... like an "over and out" thing. Do you know about the feature where you can press the circle to force it to listen and then release for it to answer?


It's interesting how in my frustration I intuitively tried that push-to-talk sorta-feature and it worked. Integrating something like Whisper and streaming live text could be neat, especially considering how different cultures handle conversational pauses and turn-taking. Wondering why there's no move towards full-duplex conversations in such tools.


Because it’s hard. I’m not aware of any full duplex speech assistant existing yet.


I wondered if this was possible, so I tried to build it, and I ended up making an app: Call Annie (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/call-annie/id6447928709). Feel free to try it out and let me know what you think


Tell the AI to respond with "..." until you end your prompt with a certain phrase.


I use it a lot while driving, and that's hard to do in that scenario, but it's cool otherwise.


You could probably instruct it to behave that way.
