Methods and systems are described. One system is a light switch having a housing configured for a circuit for a switch and a wireless chip for wireless communication with an end-node. The light switch further includes a processor chip and memory for executing instructions and interfacing with the wireless chip and the switch. A microphone is integrated with the housing and a speaker is integrated with the housing. The instructions are processed by the processor chip in response to voice commands received by the microphone, and the processing of instructions is further configured to send data to the end node and receive data from the end node. The data received from the end node is used to provide an audible voice reply to one or more of the voice commands received by the microphone of the housing of the light switch. The voice commands are handled by the end node for artificial intelligence processing that includes accessing one or more external data sources and applying one or more learning algorithms for outputting the audible voice reply via the speaker of the light switch.
