Comment on Hundreds of smartphone apps are monitoring users through their microphones
CeeBee_Eh@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoI don’t have any questions. This is something I know a lot about at a very technical level.
The difference between one wake word and one thousand is marginal at most. At the hardware level the mic is still listening non-stop, and the audio is still being processed. It *has" to do that otherwise it wouldn’t be able to look for even one word. And then from there it doesn’t matter if it’s one word or 10k. It’s still processing the audio data through a model.
And that’s the key part, it doesn’t matter if the model has one output or thousands, the data still bounces through each layer of the network. The processing requirements are exactly the same (assuming the exact same model).
This is the part you simply do not understand.

Seems you don’t, I and started your line with a question and continued to do so despite being provided with answers repeatedly . Is there some kink of roleplaying AI dev? You don’t really seem to have done your homework to do so.

That’s more applicable for something like a Google Mini. A phone is powerful enough, especially with the NPU most phones have now, to perform those detecting efficiently without stepping up the CPU state.
Is there some kink on your side in pretending you’re smart? You have no idea who I am or what I know.
Again, you’re showing your lack of knowledge here. A model doesn’t use more power if trained on one class or a hundred. The amount of cycles is the same in both instances.
It’s usually smart speakers that have a low powered chip that processes the wake word and fires up a more powerful chip. That doesn’t exist in phones.

No you are wrong. Seems your making things up on the go. More wake words to listen to more battery drain. Fact.
But sure lets play. Now that you used your “wake word counter” what use would that have ? You have ZERO context then. Completely useless .

Lol. “Nuh-uh” doesn’t work with me.

I speak from knowledge and experience. What do you bring to the table?
1 trained class = 1 model
100 trained classes = 1 model
Tell me how running 1 model would drain more battery than running 1 model? I’ll wait…
The person said “NIKE” a few times, show them ads for shoes. The person said “mechanic” “car” “fixed” around the same time, show them ads for local car repair shops.
You don’t need the full context of what was said to get some context from just the words. The spacing in time and the revelations relationship between words can give you a whole lot of context. Plenty to target ads.
Now, either come back with something real, or go away and conceed you’re out of your depth.
