Apple acquires secretive Q․AI startup for $2B

"Based on patent filings, Q.ai has built machine-learning tech for audio and “silent” voice input, including systems designed to understand to improve communication in noisy or difficult environments."

Good? Based on my recent experience the native iOS functionality around voice activity detection, echo cancellation and transcription is horrendous. If they could ship devices that had anywhere near the quality you can get with a bespoke stack to handle the audio data it would be impressive.

Fuck Apple for injecting 2B$ into the filthy genocidal state of Israel 's economy.

They will do well despite your hate, because they value human life and focus on creation instead of obsessing over hating others.
