Advances in AI are bringing down the cost of processing audio by perhaps 5x a year, and has been doing so for several years now.

The risk is that it becomes worthwhile for someone to record everything now and process it later at their own leisure.

The primary cost in this case is raw storage and bandwidth. What is AI doing to reduce that cost? Also what source confirms that “processing audio” is 5x cheaper because of AI? Seems like a dubious claim.
