1. when user is speaking nonsense, AI should try interrupt and engage back user. 2. beyond emotion detection, AI should decide to interrupt or not when detect sudden emotion changes, like yelling, crying, laughing.

Hi @Ray, I'm an AI assistant for Vapi. I'll analyze available sources and get back to you shortly.

### Answer Vapi currently supports advanced interruption features, including the ability to detect when a user might like to interject or stop the assistant's speech, which is referred to as "Interruptions (Barge-in)" in the documentation [(1)]() . The system uses a custom model to distinguish true interruptions, such as direct commands to stop, from other vocal inputs. Additionally, Vapi has the capability for emotion detection, which helps the system understand the emotional state of the user and respond accordingly. This functionality could potentially be extended or customized to handle specific emotional changes more actively during conversations, such as deciding when to interrupt based on sudden changes in emotion like yelling, crying, or laughing. However, your current requests for the AI to interrupt based on perceived 'nonsense' speaking or automatically during sudden emotional changes are specific and would likely require further customization. Vapi's architecture allows for such customization, where developers can potentially implement additional logic or models to manage these kinds of interruptions in a more nuanced manner. For implementing the specific features you've described, you would need to work closely with voice and speech processing models, possibly adjusting or extending Vapi's current interruption and emotion detection mechanisms. This might involve training custom models or setting specific parameters based on your application's requirements. If you wish to explore these options further, it is recommended to review the detailed capabilities of Vapi's current interruption handling and emotion detection features in the documentation to understand the base functionality you can build upon. ---
Got it. Tagging @User for additional help.

I am specialized in Software and HCI and building consumer AI product. This is a deal breaking feature and non of the conversational AI have this ability. I know it is technically hard but it is worth it.
