I'd love to hear the technical details of how this modern miracle works.

Does the AI process input through a DSP to 'exaggerate' the sounds in a way that gets around the damaged nerves by carrying signal from undamaged nerves?

Or is it something else?

Anyway, it's amazing, none the less! Happy for you.

You and me both. I just purchased it, I didn't personally engineer it. 

But here's what I think I understand...

1) It's better at taking sounds at my loss of range and reinterpreting to ranges that I can hear. 
2) It seems to adapt to environmental changes very rapidly and efficiently
3) It's supposed to be good at tuning in and tuning out on relevant noises, such as speech vs. environment

I should try some out.
I am willing to bet it puts the sounds into octaves/harmonics that are lower or higher than what you are missing. Super cool.
I am missing bass frequencies in the hundreds herz range so I was thinking a ghetto version would be like the coins in my car door that vibrate at harmonic frequencies to the notes I am missing.
