Any experiences with a self-hosted assistant like the modern Google Assistant? Looking for something LLM-powered that is smarter than older assistants that would just try to call 3rd party tools directly and miss or misunderstand requests half of the time.
I’d like integration with a mobile app to use it from the phone and while driving. I see Home Assistant has an Android Auto integration. Has anyone used this, or another similar option? Any blatant limitations?


Multi-billion dollar companies like Google and Apple can’t even figure this shit out, doubt some nerd is gonna do it for free.
LOL they can’t even reliably turn the lights on, WTF are you talking about?
maybe last you tried it was over 6 months ago, maybe you’re using the old google assistant, or idk, but it definitely works for me
Everything I’ve read says Gemini is like 10x worse than Google Assistant.
