you can run linux as a completely fine desktop OS right now, and there are several open source assistant projects, then there's stuff like mozilla's deep voice for recognizing voice input and you can totally train a voice synthesizing model on people who willingly donate their voices.

It's not really that far out, it just needs a handfull of people who want to see it done and have some spare time they're willing to occupy with development.
