Anyone have experience with locally run alternatives to this kind of device? Voice recognition technology has gotten pretty good by now, it should be possible
I’ve looked into and honestly they cover most of what people use the listening device for. Only issue is that they can be a bit slow and are often quite expensive. Haven’t checked in over a year though and tech like this can advance quickly.
We’ve gotten too used to the price of tech being so low because we’re almost always the product. The Meta VR headsets, Alexa, Google Home, anything where data from us can be harvested, they’ll gladly subsidize to help get it into our homes.
I’m really hoping the HA voice stuff keeps getting better and better, we need it if we’re ever going to get people away from these data harvesting “assistants”
