## Definition

**Live mode** is real-time, voice-driven interaction with an AI agent: you talk to the machine, and it does the work while you speak. In this channel's material it names a mode being added to Kieran's experiment so you can talk to a website like a human while it fixes things in the background during the polishing phase.

In this channel's material, **live mode** appears when Kieran experiments with voice-driven website feedback: he likes OpenAI's live mode — you just talk to the machine and it does the work — so the experiment is to build a **live mode of its own**: a website opens, you talk to it like a human, and while you're doing that, it fixes everything in the background.[^edd078ec-d05b-519d-bd92-9769eae6f9a1@826]The target scenario is the **polishing phase** — after the AI has done the work and you're refining it. It's convenient to see the result in front of you and just say, _“move this, do it better, can you suggest a few options?”_[^edd078ec-d05b-519d-bd92-9769eae6f9a1@804] Making it real, there's already a function to **start the development server**, plus a lightweight web server that binds and listens, streaming information from any website into the agent so the agent can take action on it.[^edd078ec-d05b-519d-bd92-9769eae6f9a1@1038] Live mode is also called out as exactly the right fit when the agent wakes up in polishing mode — doing design work live is the use case.[^edd078ec-d05b-519d-bd92-9769eae6f9a1@619]- **Live mode** = real-time spoken interaction with an agent working in the background.- Used here for the **polishing phase**: talk, and the site is fixed while you speak.- Built on a server that listens and **streams website info into the agent** so it can act.
