for Matrix calls, i'm allegedly supposed to set up this software called LiveKit that every instance needs to have, i guess?
but. uh. their website is plastered all over with "AI", and "agents". literally first sentence on https://livekit.io describes itself as "An open source framework and developer platform for building, testing, deploying, scaling, and observing agents in production.". for fuck's sake, the source link in the corner goes primarily to the AI integration, and i have to click a dropdown to find a link to the actual LiveKit repository!!!!
needless to say, i'm not exactly super keen on deploying this?
but supposedly, the underlying spec is like, MatrixRTC and livekit is just one "transport" for that broader concept?
is there an alternative transport i can use that will still work with my friends that host LiveKit deployments?
if not, is there like, any alternative to LiveKit that implements the same API but isn't AI software for building AI agents and realtime voice AI and instead like. focuses on calling. or something.?
or do i have to use specifically LiveKit if i want to call on Matrix?
