I installed @homeassistant with #VoicePreview over the weekend, using the Home Assistant Green.

It uses Whisper's base model under the hood, and I've got an Australian accent. My PhD research showed Whisper performs reasonably well on Australian accents, but I set up an automation for "start a writing session for {minutes} minutes".

And apparently I'm starting a _rotting_ session.

Got our hands on a Home Assistant Voice Preview. @gwince and I have set it up, and there's a few things we need to tweak, but I got it to add things to a shopping list and then tell me, "Yar matey! "item" is on your nomnomnom list," and it makes me giggle every single time.
