Building Voice-Controlled AI Agents

Most people picture a voice agent as STT + LLM + TTS, but the real engineering challenge is orchestration: streaming speech recognition, turn detection, streaming generation, interruption handling, and tool calling under voice constraints. This article breaks down each component, where it fails, and includes runnable code excerpts that need no paid API keys.

  • The sequential STT→LLM→TTS pipeline is too slow; streaming is the production standard for natural conversation.
  • Human conversation has a natural 200–300ms gap; beyond 500ms feels slow, and beyond 3 seconds users disengage.

An Introductory Guide to Practical Constraint Decoding

This article introduces practical constraint decoding, also known as structured generation or guided decoding, which forces LLMs to adhere to specified data schemas, grammars, or regex at the token selection stage. It explains the mechanism of building a finite state machine to mask logits, highlights the outlines library as the gold standard implementation, and provides a Python example using Pydantic models. The article also discusses trade-offs, including guaranteed syntax correctness and token savings versus loss of honesty in edge cases and initial slowdown.

  • Constraint decoding ensures LLM outputs strictly follow defined constraints by masking logits during token selection.
  • A finite state machine is built beforehand to compile constraints and provide a whitelist of allowed tokens at each step.

Language Model Hallucination Evaluation with GraphEval

GraphEval is a hallucination evaluation framework that uses knowledge graphs and natural language inference to detect and localize factual inconsistencies in LLM outputs. This article provides a simulated, lightweight code example to illustrate its two-stage process: constructing a knowledge graph from the model's response, then evaluating each triple against a ground-truth context with an NLI model.

  • GraphEval represents LLM outputs as knowledge graphs composed of (Subject, Relationship, Object) triples and uses NLI to assess each triple.
  • In a simulated example, a hallucinated triple about requiring expensive enterprise server farms is correctly flagged.

5 Key Concepts Behind Agentic AI Every Engineer Must Understand

This article breaks down the five essential engineering concepts that make agentic AI systems work in production: tool use via MCP, memory and context engineering, planning and reasoning loops, multi-agent orchestration, and evaluation with guardrails. It explains why many agents fail to reach production and how to build robust systems.

  • Tool use standardized by the Model Context Protocol (MCP) allows agents to interact with external services without custom integrations.
  • Memory is an architectural component separate from the context window, with tools like Mem0 and Zep enabling targeted retrieval.
