I think the most interesting thing in the echo and now google home narrative is that these are subsets of phones. Speakers, microphones and internet connections with only two substantial differences - they are powered 100% of the time and they have better speakers/acoustics. It will be interesting to see if those are substantial enough to overwhelm the obviousness of doing these through the phone in your pocket.
- mod 10y agoI've toyed around a bit with making a phone very capable with voice commands and it's not easy. Lots and lots of tinkering. I would love for there to be something out there akin to what echo has, with programmable skills, and hopefully able to put things onto a chromecast. I would have a lot of fun tinkering with that.
