Voice AI people: Are you using Agents SDK on prod?

Hi @f10w!
I am probably biased here, but I wanted to add a few details.
The Agents SDK did get a major recent update, centered on Sandbox Agents, controlled execution environments, memory/resume, and harness customization. The caveat is that this is still version 0.14.0.
Just a few days ago, the default model for realtime agents was updated to the newest model, gpt-realtime-2.
In the context of using the newest realtime models, I suggest following the best practices guidance. I recently created a list of relevant sources and will link it below.
Hope this helps!
