MSI-Bench: Evaluating Multi-Speaker Voice Interaction for Collaborative AI Agents

Excerpt

arXiv:2609.24812v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Voice provides a natural and immediate interface for AI agents. Many settings in which voice agents could be useful, including meetings, households, and collaborative work, are inherently multi-speaker. Supporting these settings introduces challenges that are largely absent from one-on-one interaction. We introduce the Multi-Speaker Interaction Benchmark (MSI-Bench) for evaluating multi-speaker voice interaction. Each test case is a short multi-par
