Mycroft – open-source voice assistant
The key feature I haven't seen any of these opensource projects implement is microphone response coordination: If you have multiple microphones and speakers, which one responds? My google home's are terrible at this: often one in another room responds, but at least it's only one.

Show HN: I record myself on audio 24x7 and use an AI to process the information
It's incredibly easy to do (caveat - at least if you're familiar with software dev already).

Ask HN: What is the Duck Duck Go of smart speakers?
I think a key feature of a smart speaker is the voice assistant. The only privacy aware I know of is Almond (AKA Genie) from Stanford[1]. I don't think there is any commercial speaker using Almond out there. However, Im betting you could DIY it. [1] https://genie.stanford.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
