This makes all of Amazon’s many billions of investment in Alexa almost worthless. If there is some kind of “command” plugin to this, I’d love to hook it up to Home Assistant and completely replace the Alexa ecosystem.
It almost feels like the tech is there for a DIY Alexa if you just put some microphones and speakers around your house and set up a computer to run it. I would love to see some sort of packaged open source solution for this.
thanks!! obviously there's a lot of stuff we need to do to make this run at scale that Alexa has down pat.
A Home Assistant integration is a great idea! would love to talk with you on our Discord[0] about this / over email ( ajay at vocode.dev ), it's something we definitely want to build.
