To answer your question, yes.
However, I’ve found that unless you’re going to host your own AI engine with a GPU, you’re stuck with OpenAI or Google Gemini. Luckily I’ve been able to use both with just the free tier.
Whisper and Piper run locally although Piper is a little slow on the green for my tastes. 4 second responses work, but are also frustrating when you’re not sure if it heard you or not. You’re also stuck with just the built in intents (phrases) so you need to be specific in how you say stuff.
Ultimately I set up a cloud based and a local based voice workflow and then I setup a ping probe to a IPs. If I detect the internet is up, it uses the cloud workflow. If the internet is down, it swaps to local to keep the house voice controlled.
No vowels allowed!!
Can also try the built in section headers now. You have to start a new dashboard to enable them or convert an existing one.
This is how I started too.
I just wanted something to monitor and track solar usage. Next thing I know, my whole house is monitored and automated.
Doesn’t have to work anymore. 🤷
While true, Project 2025 seems to want to go all-in on guns everywhere with strong support from the NRA. But you’re right, historically this meant only guns for loyalists.

Next thing you know, all Luigi’s are being detained.
