Voice Intelligence at Scale: From Call of Duty to Fraud Detection with Modulate AI

Every day billions of voice conversations happen across games, customer service calls, and financial transactions. Almost none of them are understood by machines. In this episode of Inference Time Tactics, Calvin Cooper and Yash Sharma sit down with Carter Huffman, CTO and co founder of Modulate, to explore the AI systems that can finally understand voice conversations in real time. Modulate’s model Velma 2.0 powers voice intelligence across industries. From moderating voice chat in games like Call of Duty to detecting fraud in financial calls and analyzing customer support conversations, their system uses ensembles of specialized models to capture tone, intent, emotion, and conversational dynamics. Instead of relying on giant foundation models, Velma orchestrates over 100 specialized models to deliver higher accuracy at dramatically lower cost. We talked about: The challenge of processing a trillion hours of annual global voice traffic. Scaling real-time moderation for massive platforms like Call of Duty. Capturing nuance, tone, and sarcasm beyond basic text transcripts. Ensemble architecture utilizing over 100 specialized models. Orchestration layers that trim compute costs by identifying optimal model subsets. Achieving order-of-magnitude cost savings compared to large foundational models. Applying "exploration vs. exploitation" optimization to shifting conversation data. Future development of "context graphs" to map participant intent and causality.

Drag, Drop, and Deploy: Rethinking How We Build AI Systems

In this episode of Inference Time Tactics, Rob, Cooper, Byron, and Dave share product updates for Neurometric’s Inference Time Compute Studio and what they reveal about the shift from single models to full AI systems. They discuss why wiring models together at scale is so challenging, how a drag-and-drop interface can make experimenting with inference strategies easier, and why open source, benchmarking, and community feedback are key to building the next generation of composable AI systems. We talked about: Why AI is shifting from single models to full systems and what that means for builders. The challenges of wiring multiple models together at scale and running them in production. How Neurometric’s drag-and-drop interface simplifies testing inference strategies without code. Why open-source models are becoming increasingly competitive with commercial solutions. The lack of standardization in AI stacks and why the industry still feels like the “early web” era. How inference-time compute can balance performance, cost, and latency across different tasks. Why benchmarks alone are insufficient and how domain-specific evaluations can fill the gap. The role of community feedback in shaping priorities for benchmarks and new primitives.

Lessons from the Leading Edge: What 420 AI Deployments Reveal About Enterprise Success

In this episode of Inference Time Tactics, Rob, Cooper, and Byron sit down with Shawn Rogers, CEO of BARC US to unpack fresh data from 421 organizations actively deploying AI in production. Shawn shares what separates the 20% of AI leaders from everyone else, why cost surprises are hitting harder than expected, and how the pressure to "just do AI" is causing companies to skip critical foundations—often to their detriment. We talked about: Why multi-model strategies and small language models are becoming essential for enterprise AI. The seven foundational areas that help AI leaders deploy twice as many projects as everyone else. Why 51% of deployments face unexpected cost overruns—and which expenses hit hardest. Data quality jumping to the #1 challenge, affecting 44% of production deployments. The IT satisfaction paradox: top resource at the start, lowest satisfaction scores at scale. How responsible AI priorities shifted as human-in-the-loop dropped from 36% to 21%.

Super Human Skill: Storytelling

We tell ourselves the future belongs to whoever can code the fastest, analyze the most data, and automate the most tasks. But what if the real advantage in the age of AI isn’t technical at all—it’s the ability to make a room feel something? In this episode of Tough Day, KVJ sits down with Joe Lazer, award-winning content strategist, CMO at Pepper, and author of Super Skill, to make the case that storytelling isn’t a soft skill on the margins—it’s the foundational human capability that makes every other skill work better. Joe has spent his career at the intersection of journalism, marketing, and AI—and when ChatGPT hit its tipping point, he went looking for what human skills would actually survive. What he found: humans don’t just want good content, they want to know it came from another person. In this conversation, he breaks down his RENT framework for making storytelling stick, why the “AI won’t replace you” maxim points leaders in the wrong direction, and how one employee story will always outperform a deck full of data. What we cover: Why humans are wired to reject stories they know came from a machine, even good onesThe RENT framework: the four elements that make a story stick in your audience’s mindWhy scoring employees on AI usage is leading companies in exactly the wrong directionHow the most effective storytellers use AI Learn more about Joe Lazer: Website: https://joelazer.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joe-lazer Book (Super Skill): https://joelazer.com/superskill Substack: https://storytellingedge.substack.com Podcast: https://storytellingedge.substack.com/podcast Learn more about KVJ | Tough Day Website: https://tough.day/ LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kvonjan Hosted on Acast.
