Enhance Error Messaging by Specifying Failure in STT, TTS, or LLM Components

[Ashesh3]

Our current error messages are verbose and lack clarity in pinpointing the exact component failure, whether it's Speech-to-Text (STT), Text-to-Speech (TTS), or Language Learning Models (LLM). We need to improve our error handling to provide more user-friendly and specific error messages.

Problem Statement:

• Current Behavior: Error messages are too verbose and do not specify which part of the process (STT, TTS, or LLM) failed.
• Impact: This lack of clarity can be confusing for users and makes troubleshooting more difficult for our support and development teams.

Proposed Solution:

1. Implement Component-Specific Error Messages: Revise our error handling mechanism to include component-specific tags or identifiers (STT, TTS, LLM) in the error messages.
2. Simplify Error Language: Make the error messages less technical and more understandable to a general audience.

Goals:

• Clearly identify which component (STT, TTS, or LLM) the error originated from.
• Make error messages concise and easy to understand for users without technical backgrounds.
• Assist in faster diagnosis and resolution of issues by our support and development teams.

Additional Notes:

• This improvement is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance user experience and streamline support processes.
• We should ensure that these changes do not affect the underlying error handling and logging capabilities.

is this issue still open can you assign me this ?

[Ashesh3]

@MAVRICK-1 Hey, yes the issue is still open. The frontend changes are done and its ready to accept the error along with the point of failure, all you have to do is return the error along with the component which failed from the backend side.

Example:
STT: Failed to transcribe voice
LLM: Failed to connect to openai

etc.

@MAVRICK-1 any updates on this issue?

Sorry, My exams are going on , I wasn't able to look at it . You can assign this to anyone else.

[Ashesh3]

No worries, I'll keep you assigned till someone else wants to take this up. Feel free to unassign yourself if you are no longer interested to work on this.
