# Open voice mode, build the outline out loud, have the AI ask the hardest audience questions one at a time, then fix the weak spots

Job: [Rehearse a talk out loud with AI playing a skeptical audience](https://aiagents.org/canai/rehearse-a-talk-with-ai-voice-qa)

## Need

- AI agent

## Steps

1. Open the agent's voice mode.
2. Describe the talk: the audience, the goal, the three to five points you must land, and what you are unsure about.
3. Ask the agent to build the outline with you out loud.
4. Say: "Now act as a skeptical audience member. Ask me the hardest questions about this talk, one at a time, and wait for my answer before the next."
5. Note which answers were weak.
6. Go back and fix those parts of the talk.
7. Use it before a presentation, pitch or talk when you want to practice answering tough questions out loud. Any assistant with a voice mode works, such as ChatGPT or Claude.
