Yeah. They did exactly that
Yes that's the stupid part.
Uhhhh no. For one that technology already exists on home assistant and can run on a raspberry pi. For another, Android devices already do that with apps like GBoard and Google Recorder.
You can get a Pi that can do voice to text and NLP, maybe it can even do it with reasonable speed.
You can get a Pi that is $35.
But you won't get a Pi that is $35 which can do voice to text and NLP with reasonable speed.
When you say "Android devices" you're talking about devices that are like, 5-10x the price of the nest mini. Of course they're capable.
Devices you already have and carry with you everywhere...?
I mean if it's really about money they could at least offer a "hub" of sorts as an optional accessory that other devices can talk to for local processing for a significantly improved experience, and if people don't want to pay for it they can just not.
