Yes yes yes please somebody look into latency with these fancy ML methods! You can quite literally have most ML models approximated to a very good degree as very fast DSP using very few processor cycles given modern-day CPU optimizations. Or heck use an ISA simulator plugged into another fancy ML model, and have it also optimize to minimize instruction count while recreating the same signal! (having a model optimize on its own inference is a neat trick, but I digress.) I’m sure ML is just one bottleneck among many (looking at you, Chromium) but I so desperately wish people started caring about latency again.
