    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Cisco introduced several AI-focused tools today at the Webex One customer conference designed to improve performance and provide a level of automation around meeting-related tasks.

    Jeetu Patel, EVP & GM for the security and collaboration business units at Cisco, says that every company is taking their own data sets and applying them to some foundational LLMs, but it wanted to create a new model designed to go further than that.

    And it basically uses generative AI for audio and video in new and powerful ways,” Patel told TechCrunch.

    And not only does the new codec require a lot less bandwidth to generate higher quality audio, but when you have packet loss, the AI aspect of the codec helps recreate dropped packets to help keep the quality high.

    In plain language, that means the company is saying that it puts the customer and user in control of how the data is used.

    The company says in the context of today’s announcements that employees will be able to turn off the ‘away from computer feature,’ if they are worried about management surveillance.
