He also discusses the use of voice control and the privacy measures taken by their AI system, Josh AI. Joe mentions that their services are available nationally and they have experience working on projects outside of New York. He encourages anyone interested in their services to reach out for a conversation.   About the Guest: Joe Calise, President of Sights-N-Sounds www.hometheater.biz Joe Calise has been working with electronics his whole life. Tinkering as a child, and then starting a Car Stereo and Security company while getting through High School. Joe then moved into the commercial space of Satellite TV, and designed many Sports Bars and Night Clubs in the 1990’s. When the club owners would ask for him to come to their home and setup a system, it was then that he realized his true passion would be fulfilled in the High-End Residential category. Through the years we have also worked on Private Aircraft and High End Luxury Motor Yachts as well. Starting with Television connections, and maybe a pair of speakers on a Patio, the business has evolved to complete Home Technology. As the owner of Sights-N-Sounds, Joe focuses on the day to day business operations, sales and marketing, but on a rare occasion you will still see Joe pull up in a truck and help solve a problem that is deemed “impossible to fix”. Sights-N-Sounds is a family-owned business and Joe has been the only owner operator for over 30 years, and will service you and your clients anywhere in the world.     Takeaways Integrating technology into homes requires the expertise of a technologist or integrator who can create a simple, easy-to-use system. Considering technology early in the design process allows for better integration and a more seamless user experience. Voice control systems like Josh AI can integrate with various devices and systems, allowing users to control multiple functions with a single command. Privacy is a concern with AI systems, but there are options available that prioritize data security. Services for smart home technology and AI assistance are available nationally, and companies like Sights N' Sounds can work on projects outside of their local area.
