Re: Build your own Jarvis
#2Two older discussions (1.5-2 years ago), has anyone followed the project and can summarize how it has evolved?

#3The module priority defining is something which makes it a little more smarter than normal voice command options.
The example given in the documentation is - "What's on Hacker News?" and "What's on the news?"
Jasper can differentiate the responses for both of the commands by "PRIORITY" attribute.
Has anyone worked on it in personal? I am curious.
Re: Build your own Jarvis
#4Priority attribute is also a number defined in all the modules .. Check these three lines you will have a better idea

#6Was just reading this about Mark Zuckerberg wanting to build his own Jarvis... and then I saw this. Realise one is technical and the other is not, just thought I would share this moment of coincidence that lightly tickled me for a moment.

#7Is this a self-hosted solution or anything is being sent to the "cloud"? Strangely site's FAQ did not answer this.

Ok, rereading FAQ found "None of this information ever leaves the Pi" for information in my profile. Still interesting what cloud services are being used, but this probably is on a per-module basis.

#9I went through the code a little while ago when I first saw this on HN.
My thoughts:
It really doesn't scale. It is designed for running on a single instance of physical hardware, RPi. In it's current guise it is really difficult to separate out, particularly, the TTS part which is tied to outputting to a speaker.
There is also no way to process different parts on different machines, wrap up the answer and post it back to a client device, for example a phone.
The detection of command is really just regular expressions, simple enough for a lot of people to work with but is obviously inflexible, the priority setting is useful as long as you have everything in the right order (imagine ordering 20 or more modules).
What is nice is that processing component could be very easily replaced with one that does some NLP, and fortunately Python (which it is writen in) does have some excellent libraries for that (NLTK). This means you could more naturally detect 'weather ' or 'forecast ' with some entity matching.
The other nice bit is they have done a considerable amount of work abstracting STT and TTS libraries. By itself this would be pretty useful.
Inline documentation is excellent.

#10Does anyone know whats the best "method" te convert voice into commands? I previously ran into https://wit.ai/ which seems pretty good.
But i don't have any hands-on experience.
Edit: I just noticed that Jasper can use wit.ai under the hood ( http://jasperproject.github.io/documentation/configuration/#... ).
