From Text to Lifelike Speech: Cartesia's Co-founder Arjun Desai On Voice and AI Agents

Nov 13, 2025

Today I’m proud to announce that my car has been promoted. It is no longer just a car. It is now… a podcast studio.

Introducing Skywatch — Bluejay (YC X25)'s new podcast that takes a bird's eye view on conversational AI filmed inside my very real, very un-soundproof vehicle while driving around SF.

For episode one, we welcomed Arjun Desai, co-founder of Cartesia to hop in the passenger seat and talk about building insanely fast, insanely high-quality voice systems… while I try not to hit a cyclist.

We covered:
🔹 Why Sonic 3 actually changes the game in voice AI
🔹 What “first-principles thinking” looks like when you’re shipping real models
🔹 The trade-offs behind speed, quality, and realism
🔹 The future of voice agents and what still needs to be solved
