Mark Zuckerberg, the owner of the social media giant Meta, stated that they had decided to lay off more than 11 thousand employees in the past days, and stated that he was responsible by saying, “I made a mistake in this business.” On the one hand, Zuckerberg is making layoffs, and on the other hand, he is trying to add new names and brands to his staff.

Most recently, Meta announced that it will acquire Cambridge-based startup Audio Analytic. While no explanation has yet been made about the financial details of the deal, it was stated that the venture will join Reality Labs, Meta’s Metaverse development unit.

Sounds will be moved to Metaverse

Audio Analytic trains artificial intelligence to recognize common sounds in everyday life. These sounds can teach artificial intelligence not only the sounds of people speaking, but also sounds such as dog barking, glass breaking, car horn, baby crying. Meta is also looking for ways to best imitate the sounds of the physical world within the Metaverse. The new initiative is expected to work in this area after joining Meta.

It is stated that with the editing of the sounds, Meta’s metaverse platforms will be enlarged, developed and brought closer to reality. Considering that the goal of Meta is to create a virtual alternative to the real world, we can think that sounds are also an important point.

Audio Analytic, which previously managed to collect $ 25 million in financing, is among the remarkable initiatives of recent times. The startup’s “ai3” software is used by technology companies that want to develop products using voice recognition technology.
