How can I download the turn-detector model and store it locally to be used by the worker when it loads? I am talking about livekit turn detector model which is downloaded from huggingface

To download the LiveKit turn-detector model and store it locally for use by the worker, you can run the following command:

Copy code

python my_agent.py download-files

This command will download the model weights before running the agent for the first time, ensuring they are available for local worker usage. The turn detector functionality is implemented through the

turn_detector.EOUModel()

class in the LiveKit plugins module. Sources: AI voice agents | LiveKit Docs

Yeah I know that but where are they stored? because I want to store them once so they dont need to be downloaded everytime my worker runs

Unfortunately, I couldn't locate specific information about the default storage location for the LiveKit turn-detector model. To ensure the model is stored persistently and doesn't need to be downloaded every time, you might consider specifying a custom directory for storing the model files. If this is not configurable, you may need to check the documentation or the codebase for details on where the files are saved by default. If you need further assistance, I can escalate this to a human specialist for more detailed guidance.
