Personally I favour “hey f***wit, turn on the lights”

But I suspect I’ll have to train that one myself.

Until of course home assistant achieves world domination, and the commercial players want to emulate it. “Buy our product and get all the advantages of home assistant, plus these added features, on a simple monthly subscription”

Oh damn that’s cool thank you!

1st: big thank you for the efforts

FWIW: Nabu == Germany’s biggest and oldest NGO. Continuously present in media, I doubt German users want to call their HASS “Nabu” Wir über uns - NABU

+1 for custom wake words. No worries training it myself as it only has to listen to me and my family as opposed to a trillon different accents and dialects. In fact, I want HASS to only listen to me and my family … just my 2ct

I have no issue with Nabu, despite a German background.
I don’t understand the whole fuss anyhow.

It’s a human thing (and seems to become even worse as we are ‘evolving’): complaining, criticizing, …
In this case also: they probably didn’t read the relevant postings…

Calling your voice assistant with the same name as an environmental association is a boss move.

Both are looking out for the environment - one of them takes care of the nature around you, while the other takes care of the environment by making sure you’re not wasting electricity because you don’t want to get up to flip a switch :wink:

From a dialect we speak in Singapore (originates from China and Taiwan) called Hokkien.

What is the status on adding an all-in-one training notebook for microWakeWord (mWW) model training so that we can more easily can train our our own microWakeWord models?

PS: For the openWakeWord model training there is a fully scripted and automated Google Codelab notebook but I understand that might not work for microWakeWord (mWW) model training which takes longer and require more resources?

Indeed thanks for pointing this out Hedda. I was not aware it’s a different wake word model. This has suddenly become a very high priority ask.

FYI, some/most posts that questioned the choice of default wake-word on official Home Assistant voice hardware where moved to a new thread seperating that discussion (though it still a very much on-topic here), see:
