NVIDIA Unveils RTX Voice, AI-based Audio Noise-Cancellation Software
Perhaps the biggest gripe about attending office calls and meetings from home these days is the background noise - everyone's home. NVIDIA developed an interesting new piece of free software that can help those on desktops cut out background noise in the audio, called RTX Voice, released to web as a beta. The app uses AI to filter out background audio noise not just at your end, but also from the audio of others in your meeting as you receive it (they don't need the app running on their end). The app leverages tensor cores, and requires an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20-series GPU, Windows 10, and GeForce drivers R410 or later. RTX Voice runs in conjunction with your meetings software. Among the supported ones are Cisco Webex, Zoom, Skype, Twitch, XSplit, OBS, Discord, and Slack. For more information and FAQs, visit the download link.

You think it's more likely to send anything to NV servers than the NV software you already have?
:o I may not understand US specifics that well. Does buying at Best Buy make one ignorant or do ignorant people choose Best Buy? Interesting stuff!
Cause Discord listen all your calls and read your texts.
I.e. you get stitched one way or another. Privacy is a myth...
Why on earth you need something like that, with the added latency, when a HW solution INA217/SSM2019 + SSM2166 does the job pretty well... and costs few bucks.
Noise... it should not be there in the first place... People really don't have a clue about things these days at all...
I have to to lean myself to wacky conspiracists that the only intention for really is to fetch data. They got jealous of Google and Apple, as they can record our voice data and monetize it?
It's super niche since it's only working with RTX gpu... no the office meeting use case is really unlikely. It's for gamers who don't happen to have a serious stream setup. It also doesn't just remove noise from audio in, but audio out as well
You're afraid you'll miss a headshot during the morning meeting? Yes, I'll only join videocalls from my tin-painted basement. I have to hide anyway, because I've just murdered all my neighbours. Yeah, you're working from home, discussing confidential corporate stuff over a server-based communicator, sitting next to an open window. People who hear you probably know your name and who you work for.
But you should definitely worry about NV servers.
Is the tin hat shit necessary, is the mocking bitterness necessary, no.
And secondly it requires an RTX card this tech released TODAY but somehow without the tech to trial it and any evidence your a expert, I doubt it.
Some people might just feel like everyone are getting paranoid with spying when it's not that hard to stay private if you care that much about it :
And looking at the app requirement along with it's lack of publicity, it's not going to be a mainstream thing where you'll have to ask everyone if they are using it to before going in a call. The market for this app is a bit odd, it's for people who don't care enough to buy dedicated hardware, but wouldn't mind using a free app as a commodity. People who are actually serious about audio recording (seasoned streamers) are not concerned by this. That app is also claiming to "clean" noisy output, it doesn't just stop at recording.
