I've created a tool to test integrations against our integration quality rules using AI. It generates per integration and rule a report explaining if the integration satisfies the rule and if not, what needs to change in the integration to pass the rule. It's been useful!

I wish everyone today an awesome and amazing Home Assistant Community Day!

Found my favorite unexpected smart home gadget of CES. This keyboard has Matter! Use the fn button and pressing the F1-12 keys will fire Matter based events 😃

For 11 years we’ve been working on creating an independent foundation for a privacy focused smart home, 100% in service of its users and no one else. The Open Home Foundation ensures that this focus can never change. One big missing piece of the Open Home has been voice. After two years of hard work, this week will go down in history as a major leap towards giving the Open Home an independent voice.

Tune in on the 19th to see how you can preview the future.

On the 19th of December we’re going to end the year with a bang and launch the first Home Assistant voice hardware 🎉 you don’t want to miss this https://youtube.com/live/ZgoaoTpIhm8

@badnetmask Getting the hardware, Wyoming etc can soon be replaced with our hardware. Then it’s “just” running and configuring local AI.

Super cool: NetworkChuck has done a video series in which he builds a voice assistant powered by @homeassistant. Powered fully by local AI, Speech-to-Text and Text-to-Speech. Open Source for the win 💪

GitHub keynote… ✅

Super great to be able to tell our story to GitHub Universe ‘24 and do on-stage real demos ❤️

It is important that voice assistants only listen when a user says the wake word, but this is not an easy task! To increase the accuracy of microWakeWord, we need recordings from people from all over the world saying wake words.

We created a website that allows you to help us by recording yourself with your phone or computer and contribute them to the collective. We're starting with one wake word, and are working with the community to decide which to add next.
