This German nonprofit is building an open voice assistant that anyone can use
LAION, the German nonprofit behind a number of popular AI data sets, wants to develop an open voice assistant called BUD-E.
Will be interesting to see this integrated into Home Assistant one day, if it keeps going like this.

We need better hardware with long ranging microphones that can isolate the voice.
I'm still waiting for something I can put in my rooms, I can even make use of my Sonos speakers for audio output, so it's really just the microphone.

By the time the firepower of a 4090 is something approaching affordable, the efficiency of these models should have quadrupled. That's gonna be a great day... and what, probably in 2025? Hell maybe even by Christmas 2024!
