    • Plutoless introduces TEN as a cutting-edge open-source framework for real-time AI interactions with ultra-low latency.
    • Plutoless emphasises Astra’s balance between advanced technology and user-friendliness to make complex AI integrations accessible.
    • Plutoless highlights the role of community collaboration in driving innovation and enhancing Astra’s capabilities.

    Speaker profile

    Plutoless is the co-founder of TEN, a framework developed to build real-time, multi-modal AI agents. With a master’s degree in Computer Science from Oxford University, Plutoless has a solid background in both front-end and back-end development, which has allowed them to adapt to advancements in AI technology efficiently. Their experience in the real-time interactive industry has led to a focus on simplifying complex technological processes, making it more accessible for developers and non-technical users to create AI solutions. As the head of developer experience at TEN, Plutoless emphasises innovation and creating tools that are both functional and user-friendly, aiming to support and enhance the developer community.

    Guiding innovation at TEN

    “Our motivation is simple: we only pick the top models. The focus is always on whether it works great and if it will benefit the community.”

    As the head of developer experience at TEN, Plutoless highlights two key principles that guide his team’s work: excellence and community benefit. The team’s motivation is simple yet powerful: to choose and integrate only the best technologies, regardless of business or monetisation pressures. This focus ensures that TEN’s solutions are both effective and beneficial to the developer community. The team prioritises filling gaps in existing technologies, such as the development of Speech-to-Text (STT), Text-to-Speech (TTS), and other essential components that enhance the usability and functionality of their framework. This approach not only improves the framework but also fosters strong community partnerships, driving innovation in the field.

    Major contributions and achievements

    One of the most significant contributions of TEN, according to Plutoless, is simplifying the process of building multi-modal AI agents. The framework is designed to be accessible, even for developers who may not be familiar with the intricacies of video, audio, or real-time communication technologies. By providing comprehensive tutorials and support, TEN empowers developers, including those with a focus on algorithms or large language models, to create customised real-time interactive agents with ease. This accessibility is a testament to TEN’s commitment to lowering barriers to entry in AI development.

    Key trends in real-time interactive technology

    Reflecting on his years of professional experience, Plutoless observes a significant shift in how people interact with technology. The early 2000s saw the rise of text-based chatrooms, followed by live video and audio streaming in recent years. Today, the trend is moving towards multi-modal interactions with AI agents, where text, audio, and video converge. Plutoless believes that TEN will play a pivotal role in this transition, providing the tools necessary for developers to build sophisticated AI agents that can interact with humans in real-time across multiple modes of communication. His vision for TEN is to become as essential to AI development as React is to web applications today.

    Looking ahead, Plutoless remains focused on deepening his knowledge in AI and real-time communication technologies. He acknowledges that the rapid pace of technological change requires continuous learning and adaptation. As the head of developer experience, his goal is to make AI development accessible to a broader audience, including those with limited programming experience. Plutoless envisions a future where non-technical users, such as product managers, can build AI agents using tools designed with user-friendly interfaces. This democratisation of AI development is at the heart of his work, and he is committed to expanding the scope and impact of developer experience in this new era of technology.

    Plutoless’s insights offer a glimpse into the future of real-time interactive technology and AI development. His dedication to excellence, community collaboration, and accessibility in technology sets a high standard for innovation in the field. As TEN continues to evolve, it is poised to become a central framework in the development of AI agents that can seamlessly interact with humans across multiple communication modes.
