After 30+ years of watching the evolution of over-the-top communication services, something has changed. In the first half of 2026, Jeff Pulver has seen Voice AI, HD Voice, vCon, trust, identity, and conversational intelligence converge in ways that may return strategic value to communications infrastructure.
