How to build smarter turn detection for Voice AI

Really great deep dive into a subtle yet impactful problem in voice AI. Turn detection is one of those things users only notice when goes wrong, and this shows a brilliant job showing how traditional VAD-based approaches fall short.

Loved the explanation of using instruction-tuned SLMs for <|im_end|> probability - elegant, efficient, and practical. The code examples very handy too!

This is one of those posts I’ll be coming back to when thinking about latency-sensitive voice interfaces with my own projects.
