Overview
A whisper.cpp voice assistant for the Raspberry Pi 5 (and Pi 4) that switches GPIO pins by voice: say 'green light on' and the green LED lights up.
How it works
The whisper.cpp `stream` example is compiled with libgpiod and listens continuously. Recognised phrases set GPIO 24 or 25 high, and you can add your own phrases or drive a relay HAT for motors and buzzers. The Pi 4 should use the tiny.en model; the Pi 5 handles up to small.en.
