Ubisoft doing God's work.

And by that I mean not having their games available on steam so I cannot purchase them.

Do you guys think there will ever be a FOSS voice assistant? in c/foss@beehaw.org

Not really. Even Amazon, Apple and Google have been investing in assistants less and less. They have had massive lay offs from voice assistant teams.

"But it's not clear whether they are money-making opportunities. Reports say most interactions are relatively simple tasks like checking the weather, or playing music.

More broadly, according to one report, over the past three years voice assistant use has been falling and another report suggests that the adoption of smart speakers is slowing."

So no it's not just "my opinion". But sure just down vote and fuck off.

There is no reason why it should not exist other than the fact that there really is no interest. Except for a few uses here and there (driving for example), voice assistants are just gimmicks.
