   The series of articles by Adam Conway discusses how the author replaced cloud-based smart assistants like Alexa with a local large language model (LLM) integrated into Home Assistant, enabling more complex and private home automations.

   - Select the desired model for use within Home Assistant.
   3. **Voice Processing Tools**:
   - Use **Whisper** for speech-to-text transcription.
   - Use **Piper** for text-to-speech synthesis.
   4. **Smart Home Automation**:
   - Automate complex tasks like turning off lights and smart plugs with voice commands.
   - Use data from IP cameras (via Frigate) to control external lighting based on presence.
   5. **Hardware Recommendations**:
   - Use Home Assistant Voice Preview speaker or DIY alternatives using ESP32 or repurposed microphones.
