About this episode
In this episode of the Generally AI podcast, hosts Roland and Anthony explore the fascinating world of audio waves by discussing the history of Fourier analysis and how the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) revolutionized signal processing with its efficiency. They then shift to song recognition apps like Shazam and their underlying algorithms: breaking songs into snippets and using techniques such as the FFT or neural networks.
