## Definition

**Speaker differentiation** — in the context of real-time voice interaction with AI — is the ability to tell apart _which person_ is speaking when one or more voices are captured in a live audio session, rather than only processing the words being said.

When conversations move from typed text to live audio, more than one person can speak into the same session — and the AI has to understand **who is saying what**. That ability to separate one voice from another is what this entry covers in the context of the channel's exploration of real-time voice interaction.This term appears alongside the channel's broader coverage of **real-time voice interaction with AI** — sessions where people talk with AI, interrupt it, and think alongside it rather than typing. Explore those sessions to see how live audio changes what a conversation can be.- **Speaker differentiation** is about telling apart *who* is speaking, not just *what* is said.- It becomes relevant specifically in **live, real-time voice sessions**, where multiple voices may share one audio stream.- It connects to the channel's broader theme: voice turns AI from a text box into a presence you can talk with.
