Conversational AI: Chatbots

Building Your Own Conversational Voice AI ...

This is the third blog in the series:
A best practice for streaming audio from a browser microphone to Dialogflow & Google Cloud Speech To Text.

In case you haven’t read the other blogs, I recommend to browse back to these blogs:

Blog 1: Introduction to the GCP conversational AI components, and integrating your own voice AI in a web app.
Blog 2: Building a client-side web application which streams audio from a browser microphone to a server.

In the next blog of this series, I will receive the audio bytes from the browser microphone on the server-side, so I can use this to make Dialogflow Detect Intent or Speech to Text transcribe calls!
