Suggestions pls: Facial recognition & Alexa/Google Assistant

[lifetech]

Hi all!. I am very pleased with my MM. And its time to add the next round of modules but I do not know what currently works. I tried a few things which failed and I’m curious what other people are using right now. Can anybody show me what modules are currently working to add Facial recognition and Alexa or Google assistant? I want my MM to recognize me and do lookups with voice control

MMM-Facereco-DNN is the only one I know works anymore
its only enabling which modules display by user. ALL MODULES are loaded at start time, node can be loaded later

MMM-GoogleAssistant is the best voice module

MMM-AwesomeAlexa works, but, cannot talk to any skills anymore , due to Amazon changing the authorization requirements
