The sound of other players munching on chips can be a source of annoyance and distraction for online gamers. Now, a software program promises to cancel out these crunching sounds so you can carry on snacking without bothering fellow gamers.

This surprising computer program, proposed by the famous Doritos potato chip brand, is capable of suppressing the noise of potato chip munching. Powered by artificial intelligence, it has been designed to let you carry on snacking on chips while gaming (or on a conference call) without disturbing your friends or colleagues. Called Doritos Silent, this "crunch cancellation" software is currently only compatible with PCs running Windows 10 or 11.
