If this application is legit it's going to get snatched up by Apple/Amazon/Google to make their voice assistants better, right now they can't handle cross talk at all.

This particular implementation doesn't really apply to those situations, there are already existing technologies which can pre-train on specific voices they could be using for that since the target is known. The main "improvement" from this system is that you can train it on any target subject, even with background noise, in only a few seconds.

It's most useful in scenarios they've outlined in their study, like using it with your friend you ran into on the bus, your tour guide, etc.
