Amazon Echo devices now send all #Alexa requests to the company cloud of #Amazon, as of 28th March. Tell me, is this another #privacy concern?

Хочу посмотреть в каком состоянии сейчас коммерчески доступные локальные голосовые ассистенты. Что могут из коробки, сколько пердолинга требуется, etc.
Я, конечно, понимаю, что это не Яндекс Станция на которую я достаточно долго просматривал, но станцию я просто не смог купить потому, что:
- Я не могу ей доверять
- Она имеет немало ограничений и привязок к экосистеме Яндекса
А поиграться в будующее хочется всё равно.
Кстати, это всё ещё и перекликается с минимум двумя подкастами, которые я хочу как-нибудь записать.

Oh no, the #apocalypse is here: your #voice sounds like a 90s #robot on Zoom! 
The horrors of sounding like a can of beans are too much to bear, so naturally, we need a 400 error to divert the #crisis — anything to avoid contacting support!

Some performances absolutely define #songs and this is one of them. The #angel #voice of #hopesandoval never sounded better.

"The loss of this self was nothing to be mourned; I was glad to have arrived on the other side. But I was too freshly molted, my shell soft and nerve endings still tingling."

These are #HardTimes for a lot of people in a lot of ways! Stunned, angry, fearful and more are natural reactions. Make your #voice heard, express your feelings and your needs, but let's not lose #love #hope #compassion in the chaos. Sending a hug to brothers and sisters around the world! #SolaceInNature #solidarity #unity #CanadaStrong

For everybody who uses the open source TTS (text-to-speech) application Piper: I have created a Docker file to run Piper directly within the container. No need to install the correct Python version. Everything comes pre-installed in the Docker image. Open source too: https://github.com/tderflinger/piper-cli-docker

So it's 2025 and I can't ask my computer "Check my email" and get a "You have 3 new email" and me "Read aloud my first email" and then reply by dictating my message?
I'm working for a client who cannot look at a screen, and have sever arthritis, and I've been helping her to setup a workflow with the less amount of looking at a screen and less amount of typing and I am appalled by how difficult that is.
Anyone is verse in Voice UI ? It could be on Mac or Windows, or Linux, and I can build some electronic for her too (headless raspberry pi, with text only email, text to voice / voice to text.)
Although I generally don't want to use LLM or AI, I would break that rule to work with her on some sort of model that could help her with her day to day activities.
Took out my Joe Meek JM47. Its been in storage for 20 or so years. Still works thank fuck. Always leant a nice chime'y quality to acoustic guitar and clean electric.
Image is from Sound on Sound mag around 99. Mine still looks like this. 
Any time I see one listed on ebay or reverb they're wrecked.
This is just an example of me rambling spoken stuff about it. I feel like this is a bit of tech history.
