- devmunchies 2y agoWe use esp32-s3 at my company (smart speaker) but we don't don anything fancy. Can you explain this? Why use esp as a peripheral if you already have an ARM chip? We were considering moving off of esp to something that would make it easier do cpu-bound AI inference on-device or to enable more advanced audio DSP algos.
