Build a Private AI Smart Home: Home Assistant Green, Voice PE and Josh.ai
How to get AI home control without handing everything to the cloud, from DIY to custom-installed.. How to get AI home control without handing everything to the cloud, from DIY to custom-installed.

AI is reshaping home control, but where your data goes depends on the platform. Two routes stand out.
DIY route: Home Assistant Green sets up with just power and Ethernet and finds devices automatically. Add the Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition for voice commands and a local AI computer for language models, and the whole system can run inside the home.
Luxury route: Josh.ai's AI X OS, installed by certified dealers, orchestrates lighting, shades, climate, audio and security in high-end homes through voice, touch and a handheld controller.
Either way, the trend is the same: the smart home's brain is moving onto the premises.
