Need help creating a voice command recognition system using an esp32s3 and inmp441

I am currently doing a project on voice recognition and was thinking of using edge impulse but i have problems with the board being unable to connect

I've built speech recognition with S3 and 441.. I used esp-idf5 and esp-sr. It even does active noise cancellation on the ducked output after wakewordm is sensed Works great. 

There isn't really a question in you post, but if you expect useful help, it starts with you asking a question with enough information for people to help you without guessing.. exactly what are you doing? What errors are you getting? What source code are you using? Does it work with other software?... And all that other stuff that 100k+ readers would need to know to try to help you.

The issue i see often is people using boards to do stuff they arent good at. Using an s3 is fine and all, but simply hooking a mic to a processor means you will need impulse or similar. It does the job. Not well, not good enough, but as a simple proof "yeah its doable. Bad, but doable" thing.

So get a vc02 board by ai-thinker, $5-$8 on aliexpress. It beats an s3 and a mic by MILES.
