AcouIntel · x · 2026-10-13
During a Google internship, Sona! Kumar led work on SEA-LLM, an egocentric spatial audio understanding model aimed at smart glasses.
- Today's audio LLMs know what they hear, but not where it's coming from
- One model answers what, where, when, and who (you vs. bystanders), plus what was said
- Targets spatial audio intelligence for wearables
