In our noisy, multitasking world, I never really stopped to question how poorly most devices handle sound—until I came across this video on linkedin demonstrating audio AI developed by a startup called attention labs.
Check out their video here.
The video shows how ChatGPT is running on two different devices and are acting like remote employees, speaking only when they are being spoken to.
Whether I’m on a call in a busy space, trying to give a voice command to a smart assistant, or just moving between devices, there’s always been friction. attention labs has developed audio tech that makes all of that feel… effortless. It genuinely shifted how I think about everyday voice interaction.
Hearing Clearly—Even When the World’s Loud
We’ve all been there—trying to talk on the phone while walking down a street or in a café full of background noise. Normally, you just end up shouting or giving up.
But with attention labs’ audio engine, I noticed a stark difference. Instead of trying to filter everything, the tech focuses on the actual conversation. It doesn’t just remove noise—it makes your voice feel like it’s front and center.
And once you hear what that sounds like, there’s no going back to the muffled, laggy noise-canceling I used to settle for.
Commands That Actually Work the First Time
I use voice assistants daily—but they rarely get it right the first time. Either they miss my command, take too long, or misinterpret what I said.
What really stood out to me about attention labs is how fast and accurate everything becomes when their tech powers the interaction. No delay, no “Sorry, I didn’t catch that,” and no need to shout across the room.
That instant responsiveness? It’s because the audio is processed directly on the device—not sent out to a server and back. And that makes all the difference.
Switching Devices Without Losing the Thread
In real life, conversations don’t stick to one device. I might start on my phone, throw on a headset, then switch to smart glasses or even speak to a home robot.
Usually, that shift causes weird gaps, echoes, or loss in clarity. But attention labs makes transitions feel seamless. Your voice stays crisp across the board, and everything just works—without thinking about it.
It felt like my devices were finally working together, instead of each doing their own thing.
Why This Feels Like the Future of Voice Tech
Here’s the thing that clicked for me: attention labs aren’t just improving voice tech—it’s rebuilding it around real-world use.
They’re doing away with the old “send-it-to-the-cloud” model. Instead, everything happens right on the device, in real time. That means:
- Your voice stays private
- Interactions are instant
- Sound stays clear, even in tough environments
It’s hard to un-hear that difference once you’ve experienced it.
