We think that we can achieve that by leveraging Home Assistant’s strongest asset: our community. And it’s our goal to support all these languages with voice. Home Assistant supports 62 different languages in its user interface.
We are going to start with a few actions and build up the language models around that. No web searches, making calls, or voice games. To keep the amount of work ahead of us manageable, we’re going to limit the number of possible actions and focus on the basics of interacting with your smart home. People need to be able to speak in their own language, as that is the most accessible and only acceptable language for a voice assistant for the smart home. There are enough projects out there trying to create an English voice assistant. Our #1 priority is supporting different languages. The amount of work laid out for us can be summarised as follows: It’s a big and bold goal, but achievable given the right constraints. It is our goal for 2023 to let users control Home Assistant in their own language. We didn’t only reflect, we also announced our focus for next year: 2023 is going to be the year of voice. However, we already did that last month when we hosted the State of the Open Home 2022. Usually, the month of December is meant to reflect back. We’re starting off by building a collection of intent matching sentences in every language.
Mike Hansen, creator of Rhasspy, has joined Nabu Casa to lead this effort. TL DR: It is our goal for 2023 to let users control Home Assistant in their own language.
