I've been ruminating on the inverse of this idea, where lavalier and directional mics would soon give way to any amateur being able to isolate a clean sample of any voice of your choosing, with AI processing recordings from two or three or four ordinary phone mics strewn about in an indoor environment.

In the meanwhile, every day around 10AM (sometime after, or later if I happen to not log in in the morning), my Mac makes a super loud DING! DING! sound, like a boxing match just started or a cable car trolley is about to pass through. I've tried using the Console and combed through the launchd.log to no avail. :)
