Could you create an in-depth video series on building AI voice agents for beginners to advanced users using Vappy and retail AI, demonstrating it across various niches, since there are few comprehensive tutorials available?
No problem. An AI voice agent series would be pretty cool. We're just reaching the point where the technology is good enough to realistically create something like this. I'll consider what such a series would look like, and if I believe I can deliver it at higher quality than others and you're convinced I can, I'll add it to my queue and produce some videos. I can't guarantee it yet—I don't want to overpromise—but the technology is now at a stage where it's realistic and feasible to deploy.
Yes, I’ve built AI voice agents and plan to keep building them. We’re currently in the uncanny valley where performance is close to human but not quite there, making people hesitant. I expect the gap to close in the next three to six months, after which these agents will be widely deployed. Building them now is exciting and valuable.
I think they're full of it. Voice agents are not the real gold right now. They're too early to be selling; they're not good enough for most business cases, only some specific ones. I wouldn't focus on them.
I don’t sell voice agents because the best‑paying industries are those with high‑lifetime‑value customers, and putting a high‑LTV client on an AI voice agent is risky. A voice agent can say the wrong thing, hallucinate, crash, or sound like a pack of barking dogs, which instantly erodes trust. Most people will be put off by that experience. Therefore I’d only sell voice agents to low‑LTV segments where individual customers don’t matter as much and the primary benefit is cost‑saving rather than revenue generation. If voice agents were the only product I had, I’d probably look for a job instead—just kidding—but the math simply doesn’t add up right now. That could change in a few years as the technology improves.
Thank you. I had a great rest last night and I'm on fire today. If you want to talk about consistency and discipline, the best way is to get 8 to 9 hours of sleep each night—it makes everything easier. You asked about making a video on how to create an AI appointment setter; that would help a lot. Are you referring to an AI voice agent? If so, check out my AI voice agent—search for it, as Googling my content helps boost my rankings. One of my daily updates videos appears there, and there's also Nick's AI net worth search, which is funny. Another option is the AI agent, probably the website agent I built, which does some setting for you—give it a try and let me know your thoughts.
