6 . The wireless earbud of claim 5 , wherein the artificially intelligent assistant is generated based on camera input.

7 . A wireless earbud comprising:

an earbud housing;

a loudspeaker element;

a microphone;

a rechargeable battery; and

at least one circuit board having disposed thereon:

circuitry for wireless communication, audio coding and decoding, and earbud operation control; and

an artificially intelligent assistant that the circuit board is configured to make available to a user of the wireless earbud, wherein the artificially intelligent assistant is configured for accessing at least one of multiple artificially intelligent applications, and wherein the artificially intelligent assistant is configured to issue commands to any of the multiple artificially intelligent applications;

wherein the artificially intelligent assistant is further configured to:

(i) receive voice input using the microphone;

(ii) generate audio data based on the voice input;

(iii) determine whether the artificially intelligent assistant recognizes an intent associated with the voice input as an intent to control an earbud function;

(a) in response to the artificially intelligent assistant recognizing the intent as the intent to control the earbud function, causing the audio data to be processed on the circuit board to control the earbud function; and

(b) in response to the artificially intelligent assistant not recognizing the intent as the intent to control the earbud function, forwarding a command based on the audio data to at least one of the multiple artificially intelligent applications.

8 . The wireless earbud of claim 7 , wherein the artificially intelligent assistant issues the commands based on a request from the user.

9 . The wireless earbud of claim 8 , wherein the request from the user comprises an instruction to turn on or off a particular device.

10 . The wireless earbud of claim 7 , wherein the circuit board is further configured to provide a curated experience to the user based on context data without real-time user intervention.

11 . The wireless earbud of claim 10 , wherein the artificially intelligent assistant provides the curated experience to the user.

12 . The wireless earbud of claim 10 , wherein the context data comprises biometric data about the user from the wireless earbud.

13 . The wireless earbud of claim 7 , wherein in response to the artificially intelligent assistant not recognizing the intent as the intent to control the earbud function, the artificially intelligent assistant further recognizes the intent as an intent to provide a curated experience, wherein the artificially intelligent assistant is further configured to convert the audio data to the command, and wherein the command is an app command associated with the at least one of the multiple artificially intelligent applications.

14 . A system comprising:

a wireless earbud comprising:

an earbud housing;

a loudspeaker element;

a rechargeable battery; and

at least one circuit board having disposed thereon:

circuitry for wireless communication, audio coding and decoding, and earbud operation control;

wherein the circuit board is configured to make an artificially intelligent assistant available to a user of the wireless earbud; and
