@homeassistant Cool!
Per home-assistant.io/voice_contro…, audio is always being recorded and wake word detection is offloaded to stronger hardware.
Is there an option to enable wake word detection on device/only record audio after?
Is the hardware in the preview edition powerful enough to handle that?
If not, is this planned at some point?
Fully local processing is great for privacy - this would be a nice additional layer :)
Ty!

Will hopefully be doing all the processing locally on a 13th gen i3 NUC.
