* Update documentation for piper TTS automation
* Remove old images
* Obey the AI
This suggestion results in a broken preview build, and I imagine it will
break an actual deployment too. But the AI insisted that this was
correct.
* Revert "Obey the AI"
This reverts commit b8d54c32ea.

| Using Piper TTS in automations |
This procedure shows you how to create a text-to-speech {% term action %}. For this, we use our local text-to-speech engine, Piper, and the media player {% term service %}. Home Assistant can then speak to you over your media player as part of an {% term automation %}.
- Go to {% my automations title="Settings > Automations & Scenes" %}, and select Create automation.
- Select Create new automation, then Add action.
- From the drop-down menu, search for or select TTS: Speak.

- To use fully local text-to-speech processing, select piper from the Choose entity control.

- Select the media player you want the automation to use.
- Enter the text you want to hear for this automation.

- Your text-to-speech action is now ready to be used in your script or automation.
- Save your action.
