Notes

• I (Quiddity) was looking at this idea for a semi-increased-privacy interface for commercial smart speakers (Alexaphone), and I remembered the existence of Mycroft AI (the open source Alexa/etc competitor). I decided to see what else was out there, and compiled this list. Please update/overhaul/etc.
