What are you keeping an eye on?
Expecting a minor revolution on the intersection of /r/selfhosted /r/LocalLLaMA and /r/homeassistant
The self-hosted AI tech is slowly but surely getting to a stage where it could pull all of this together.
What required siri/alexa last year will soon be on /r/selfhosted turf
I just wished we could hack our Alexa devices so I could use them instead of buying new hardware.
The problem is these devices don’t have the hardware to process input locally — it’s all sent back to their respective clouds for processing.
I believe Siri on newer phones can do some processing entirely local, but it’s not the norm.
