Ask HN: Hardware to Build an AI Assistant?

Any idea on what to use? My first thought of course is a raspberry pi (I got a lot in a drawer!) but my requirements should be:

-a voice activated microphone -an audio output device (speaker) -maybe a single case containing all -optional: a small screen

ideas? thanks everyone!

    Are you planning on using this assistant in a remote location somewhere or create an edge IoT device? I feel like a laptop or cell phone should suffice for most use cases.
