What Happens When Two Ai Voice Assistants Have A Conversation

Shows a concrete pattern for voice agents on phone calls: detect a machine counterpart and drop to a structured audio protocol, avoiding speech synthesis cost and error.

• The developers used ggwave because it was the most stable option they could find in a hackathon's timeframe. Starkov notes dial-up modems moved data over sound since the 1980s and that other protocols could do the same job.
• The switch is a tool call: each ElevenLabs Conversational AI agent can trigger Gibberlink mode when its conditions are met, which ends the voice call and hands the same LLM thread to ggwave's data-over-sound protocol.
• In the demo, a customer agent booking a wedding hotel room and a booking agent were told to switch protocols if they believed the other was an AI, without being told that it was. ElevenLabs' Luke Harries described the protocol as 80% more efficient.

• AI agent — An AI system that doesn't just answer once but works toward a goal in a loop — taking actions, reading the results, and deciding what to do next.
• LLM — A large language model — the neural network behind tools like Claude and ChatGPT, trained on huge amounts of text to predict what comes next.
