Home Assistant Voice Review - Local AI Assistant (Alexa / Amazon Echo Replacement)

This sleek and stylish little box is the Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition, a replacement for your Amazon Echo that runs fully locally (if you want anyway) and so long as you’ve got Home Assistant controlling all your smart home gear already, can control everything in your house with just your voice. This little thing costs just £48 - or £55 if you buy from the Pi Hut - and is fully open source too. You can build it for just $13 if you want to DIY it, although most will want to just pick up this assembled and ready-to-use version for sure. Let’s take a look at the hardware, then I’ll walk you through the setup and tweaks, and finally take a look at what this thing can do.
