- candiodari 6y agoThat would still have major advantages. You could use the extra bandwidth to stabilize everything. Even on the best of networks you have buffer pauses. And on wifi or cell you have a lot of those. If this can be used to improved those ... you'll have improved quality greatly.
- TaylorAlexander 6y agoDepends on how big the network is. You can process neural networks on CPU with acceptable speed in certain cases. And nicer smart phones tend to have a decent GPU.
- blackbear_ 6y agoIndeed, making this tool usable for consumers is a challenge in and of itself.

- ARandomerDude 6y ago$600 today, but in 3-5 years an equivalent component will be cheaper, perhaps significantly so. This is a brilliant idea, even if the hardware is pricey today. Disclaimer: no affiliation, but I use Zoom/Teams/Slack/FaceTime/YouTube.
