the A220 is a lovely aircraft to fly on, especially for tall folks - the complimentary wifi onboard was awesome too @AirCanada!
I let one of my non-tech friends listen to this conversation and they failed to identify Dessa as the agent… pretty crazy stuff tbh
Pumped to be in SF again next week. If you’re working on speech, audio models, conversational data, or evals, I’d be keen to grab a coffee while I’m in town. Shoot me a DM :)
I had, arguably, too much fun last night playing around with gpt live 1.1 - my new fav thing to do is have Miko or Sonna speak English with a German accent. Dare I say I prefer that over regular English haha
it's actually pretty crazy how early we are with AI - i think it's important to realize how most of us live in this tech bubble where all of our peers and colleagues are up to date with the latest releases and technology but thanksgiving dinner conversations this weekend with friends and family made me realize that the average person today is still very much removed from AI and personal agents.
first company to really capture this part of the market is going to win big.
super grateful to live here. Vancouver’s got it all - mountains, water, city, and good food. World’s best-kept secret maybe?
spent the last week in SF and Sydney, which are incredible and beautiful cities in their own right but coming back home to Vancouver makes me realize how underrated Van is. mountains, water, and city right at your doorstep.
great time in Sydney at Interspeech - had a great time meeting folks and getting to hear what they’re working on. Exciting times ahead :)

We’ve been thinking a lot about how to best evaluate multimodal models, especially with so much new work happening around voice agents and speech-to-speech benchmarx.
Before putting out benchmarks of our own, we wanted to spend more time understanding the core decisions that go into building a good evaluation in our latest blog post.
We’ve historically shared a lot about the data we build at Mundo, but there’s so much cool work happening internally that we’re excited to start sharing more of :)
just caught Dr Hansen's keynote at #interspeech2026. cool look at how far speech tech has come, and a good reminder of how much of the hard stuff is still unsolved. solid start to the week.

come by the lounge!!!
@hellomundoai is headed to Interspeech 2026 (and sponsoring the conference lounge)!
A huge focus of mine right now is building better speech evals/benchmarks that reflect real-world distributions - would love to chat with others working on this!
Excited to catch up with old friends and meet new folks! DM me if you'd like to chat speech data / evals 🫡
touched down in Sydney this morning - I fear that I’ve brought the Vancouver rain with me 😓 also, is everyone in Sydney a runner? I’ve seen like 50+ people running along the harbour in the last 1.5 hours lol
