Hacker News with Generative AI: WebRTC

Show HN: An Almost Free, Open Source TURN Server (github.com/lvidgen)
The WebRTC implementation posted here relies on the PeerJS Cloud Server. It's pretty reliable (I haven't seen any major outage in 5+ years), but hitching yourself to someone else's wagon always carries an element of risk - if they decide to pull the pin on their project that page will die, possibly without much warning.

The Unofficial Guide to OpenAI Realtime WebRTC API (webrtchacks.com)
OpenAI using WebRTC in its Realtime API is obviously exciting to us here at webrtcHacks. Fippo and I were doing some blackboxing of this based on a quick sample the day of the WebRTC announcement so we could look at it in webrtc-internals and Wireshark. Some weeks later, my daughter was interested in using ChatGPT voice mode. That reminded me of the many old cardboard Google AIY Voice Kits I made with her.

Cloudflare released WebRTC TURN via anycast (cloudflare.com)
A TURN server helps maintain connections during video calls when local networking conditions prevent participants from connecting directly to other participants. It acts as an intermediary, passing data between users when their networks block direct communication. TURN servers ensure that peer-to-peer calls go smoothly, even in less-than-ideal network conditions.
