I just read a reddit post somewhere about someone putting a voice ai button on their shopify page and it boosted their sales. Sometimes people have simple questions that they would like answered but can't find on a website.
Women become empowered more rapidly, leading to a cohort of young (Gen Z) men with limited economic and romantic prospects. Like an environment changing faster than a species can adapt to it.
South Korea has had this for a while (women opting out in a harmful/adversarial macro) and China did this with their one child policy and cultural beliefs.
> More than 60 percent of young men are single, nearly twice the rate of unattached young women, signaling a larger breakdown in the social, romantic and sexual life of the American male.
> Men in their 20s are more likely than women in their 20s to be romantically uninvolved, sexually dormant, friendless and lonely. They stand at the vanguard of an epidemic of declining marriage, sexuality and relationships that afflicts all of young America.
> “Women don’t need to be in long-term relationships. They don’t need to be married. They’d rather go to brunch with friends than have a horrible date,” said Greg Matos, a couple and family psychologist in Los Angeles, who recently penned a viral article titled “What’s Behind the Rise of Lonely, Single Men.”
> Heterosexual women are getting more choosy. Women “don’t want to marry down,” to form a long-term relationship to a man with less education and earnings than herself, said Ronald Levant, professor emeritus of psychology at the University of Akron and author of several books on masculinity.
> “Today in America, women expect more from men,” Levant said, “and unfortunately, so many men don’t have more to give.”
> The strategy reflected a reality that has since been unveiled by the results—a gendered battle intensified by young people, who are fighting for a sense of individual purchase on a world they have barely begun to properly live in. Those Pennsylvania exit polls. The ones in North Carolina, where young female voters went for Harris by thirty-three points and young male voters went for Trump by twenty-three. The fact that the entire nation, more or less, is shifting rightward at least a little, but that men aged eighteen to twenty-nine have moved almost thirty points rightward since 2020. If the 2016 election illuminated the shocking state of white women’s loyalties, the 2024 election has instantly done the same for young men.
I'm one of the founders of Canonical AI. We work in the Voice AI space. Here’s what we're seeing in real-time Voice AI and our take on why it's happening now. Would love to hear what the community thinks!
Yes! We can definitely help with this. Khoj lets you chat with your documents, indexing your private knowledge base for local RAG with any open source (or foundation) model.
You can make it as 'fancy' as you want, and use speech-to-text, image generation, web scraping, custom agents.
Let me know if you run into any issues? I'd love to get this setup for senior citizens! You can reach me at saba at khoj.dev.
Ah, oops. I meant Voice AI agents. That is, LLMs that people can talk to with their voice. Let me edit the post so that's clearer. Thanks for the feedback!
