About this event

Join us for an evening bringing together founders, engineers, researchers, and product teams shaping the next generation of Voice AI.

Introducing StepAudio 3

Xuerui Yang, Head of StepAudio at StepFun , will introduce StepAudio 3, StepFun’s next-generation audio model family, and demo how it goes beyond words to better understand voice, sound, context, and the natural rhythm of conversation. We’ll also open the floor for a live AMA with the StepFun audio model and product team.

Panel: The Next Interface for AI — From Voice to Real-Time Interaction

♦️ Yijia Zhang, Partner & Head of AI Algorithm & Platform at PLAUD.AI ♦️ Jove Zhong, Head of Forward Deployed Engineering at Cresta ♦️ Kobi Hudson, Head of Engineering at Coval ♦️ Jingwen Gu, Maintainer of SGLang-Omni

What does it actually take to turn better voice models into AI products that feel natural, responsive, and useful? This panel will bring together perspectives across models, real-time infrastructure, evaluation, product experience, and enterprise deployment to unpack what’s working, what still breaks in production, what users actually care about, and where Voice AI and real-time agents are heading next.
