I am so excited to have been selected to get one of the first @openhome DevKits. I was at Amazon when they acquired Yap, and part of the Fire phone team split to start what later became Alexa. I was also at Meta when Building 8 started and the work on Portal began. Sadly, neither of these fulfilled their promise and potential, for many reasons, both purely technological and corporate politics. I hope that OpenHome will succeed in building the truly intelligent voice AI agent for the home. From what I've seen so far, the team is putting a lot of effort into building all the right pieces in the platform, and they are moving in the right direction. And now that my devkit finally is here, I can't wait to start building some cool stuff for it. Thanks, @JesseRank and @openhome team!
