Show Notes
In this episode, Herman and Corn dive into the fascinating world of deep neural networks and their role in cleaning up messy audio on mobile devices. From the challenges of "non-stationary" noises like sirens to the engineering trade-offs of running AI on mobile NPUs, they explore how 2025's hardware is changing the way we communicate. They discuss the shift from cloud-based processing to edge computing, the importance of quantization, and why the future of audio intelligence is being built directly on your device.
