Re: Voice-AI-for-Beginners – A curated learning path for developers
#2I built this because Voice AI is moving fast and I couldn't find a single
place that walks a developer from "what is a voice agent" through
to production telephony, evals, and the FCC/EU AI Act stuff you actually
need to know before shipping.
Every citations are verified and active, tagged Beginner/Intermediate/ Advanced, and grouped so you can read it top-to-bottom:
foundations →
pick a framework (LiveKit or Pipecat) →
swap in STT/TTS/LLM components →
add WebRTC or SIP →
evals and production. →
What's intentionally not in there: - Vendor-locked tutorials presented as neutral guides (flagged where authors have commercial interests) - Anything that hasn't been updated in the last 12 months
Sections I'd most welcome feedback on: the open-source TTS picks (this moves weekly), the evaluation tooling (newest category), and whether the suggested 5-week learning path is realistic.
PRs and harsh critique both welcome.

Wild guess, but it's a nearly one year old account where the comment in this discussion is their only comment ever, and they've made more submissions than comments. It might trip a spammer detection rule.

Useful collection of links - thanks. The suggested learning path section: reads AI generated. It won’t take anyone five weeks to work this all out - likely a weekend would suffice (coming from someone who has implemented most variations of voice including SIP).
My personal take on learning this stuff: ask Claude Code to build a greenfield project that does what you want and then actually read the code it produced and really try to understand what it’s doing.
