A few months ago while shopping, I overheard an elderly gentleman being told by a sales rep that AI is utilized for some feature in the man's new set of hearing aids. The old man looked so confused, like that one John Cena meme. I felt so bad for the guy
This is the biggest problem wifh genai, it takes over the meaning of any other AI.. At most theis hearing aid "AI" is a small neural network to remove background (noise) vs foreground (talk), more likely it's not even that complicated but still focused on nearest conversation and not other noise.
Exactly, we used to call this "digital noise filtering", and we had it pretty damn well figured out.
You want to filter sound? Do some simple Fourier transforms and you're all set. No need for a black-box "AI" model that is likely trained on data generated by a much more simple and efficient Fourier filter.
