Ut oh... looks like @phil_libin's mmhmm has some competition... from Zoom itself! (To be clear, mmhmm seems much more polished, but still interesting to see!)

@chrismessina I like mmhmm and where it’s going but to call it more polished is a stretch :)

@trevin have you tried the Zoom take on mmhmm's features?
Trevin Chow
@chrismessina Indeed I have. In many ways it's easiest to use than mmhmm and more stable. Being integrated directly into zoom vs being a separate virtualized camera has it's advantages.

I'm already in mmhmm beta, looking forward to try zoom's beta as well.. Looks like mmhmm has got zoom's attention.. :) possibly acquisition? Overall these are great features to have.

I wonder where I can get that sort of aesthetic zoom backgrounds! 👌

Was expecting this from Zoom, since I saw @phil_libin 's mmhmm, but the silhouette effect still requires work on both these products and hard to get right without a green screen.

@rahulkrish1 I'm guessing it's a CPU issue...
