How did Astra change the scope or ambition of what you built?

It was capable of talking with me out the best architecture, tuning the voice model so that we can get the best experience, and the most important thing, making the demo video. Truly fantastic model.

When I was in the college, I often get distracted when my professor mentioned something interesting and moved on. I will start to search for that thing, dig to the bottom of it and indulge my curiosity. When my attention is back to the class, I'm completely lost. And recently I have started to listen to a lot of podcasts, on my way to work. And when the podcast host mentioned something interesting, I have to force myself to memorize that, wait until I get to the parking lot and then search for it. I wanted to be able to join the conversation, to ask the host, to have my host or my professor explain this to me. That is why we built aside. We want to provide an experience that turns any listening into your private conversation.
