The Deep View: Conversations

In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we sit down with Russ d'Sa, founder and CEO of LiveKit — the open-source infrastructure powering voice mode for OpenAI, Character.AI, and a fast-emerging voice-first internet.

Russ walks us through how a pandemic side project evolved into the nervous system for the next generation of AI-powered voice applications. But this episode goes far beyond infrastructure. We dive into big, human questions: What does it mean to interact naturally with AI? Are we moving back toward voice as the dominant interface? How will AI reshape work, leisure, and even our sense of identity?

From the democratization of high-tech tools to the societal shifts driven by intelligent systems, this is a wide-ranging and deeply thoughtful conversation on what comes next in the age of synthetic intelligence.
