The era of open voice assistants has arrived - Home Assistant : homeassistant

Is the whole stack open source or do we have to buy their hardware or license their software?

Their device does look very slick, but I'd like to hack my own system together!

No POE = Deal breaker for me

Although it's a very promising start. Looks great.

Why the flying fuck does everyone seem to use voice assistants and AI bullshit. I don't need to waste five seconds to get a bullshit response and to repeat myself when I don't get the wrong answer or to switch the light in the room next to me when I can make ten steps

I get it. I never use my Google home mini for answering anything other than, "what's the weather outside" and "where is my phone".

Honestly, if this can do those two things, my home mini can finally get recycled.
