JonahHOST
And that feature is actually used right now, um, for Hey Siri support again.
JonahHOST
What pretty much most, uh, of these smart devices or IoT devices like your, like your HomePod or, like, Alexa or whatever, they all work by continuously recording, uh, your environment and then parsing it to see if you've said, like, "Hey Siri," or, "Alexa," or...
JonahHOST
Now I've probably triggered everyone's devices, so you're welcome.
JonahHOST

I think the Audio Advice Live model is great if they could do that in different regions and find people who are interested in good sound, who love music, who want to see what's out there and get some experience with the $500 system and the $50,000 system and decide, yeah, that's way too much money and this one sounds pretty good.
Chris BoylanHOST
And right now, they're just going and buying HomePods or soundbars and having a kind of somewhat diminished audio experience and video

Devon DundeeGUEST
Um, There's got to be at least a little bit of a buffer there.

D. Griffin JonesHOST
Yeah, because Apple says these devices are only listening for the trigger phrase that we're going to try not to say.
