How cool does this look?

Something to keep an eye on...

How large of a LLM will something like that run? It will probably have a low token amount that can be levered in a local appliance. Chat GPT for example has 4k to 28k tokens in memory at a time to maintain context. 100 words equal about 75 tokens.
Thinking about the architecture it really looks cool since the workload is sent to Home Assistant or PI, later to their AI Base Station.
This seems to be coming along nicely. Looking forward to seeing if it can be supported in Hubitat.

Wow, very nice! Hoping that this will work with Hubitat once released.

It looks like it has been released with a new batch shipping soon. This comment is on the main web page:
This Dev Kit focuses on controlling your smart home via the Home Assistant platform and their incredible Assist voice control pipeline.
Hubitat does not have an "Assist voice control pipeline" so I'm not expecting a "plug and play" implementation with Hubitat.
I am very interested in de-Alexa ing my house ASAP. Hopefully some Hubitat developers are as eager to get this working as I am.

They have added a couple of different form factor examples to their web site. I purchased the Home Assistant PE edition and as has been well documented it is not exactly ready for prime time. This one has double the microphones so presumably be better to use.
I don't mind bringing voice commands in through Home Assistant and then sending them to Hubitat but having a direct connection to these devices would be very nice and presumably a big differentiator for Hubitat?
I also posted separately about Alexa Plus. It's not available here yet but I am curious how that is going to work. I don't mind the cloud piece at this point if it gets the job done. But I know that is a non-starter for many.
ya as previously not a solution for me as i dont have one apple device (by choice.. ) so cannot use home assistant or therefore this solution.
Why do you need an Apple device to use this solution or home assistant?
