At least 70% of things I read about people doing with "AI" assistants like "Open Claw" are basically things people have been doing with deterministic, secure tools like Home Assistant for years.

@tante They want it to feel like a personal secretary who can't say no, not like a CLI. That's the whole appeal to them.

@tante that’s one part i also fundamentally not get. even if you want to use llms (which i argue you shouldn’t) – just ask them to write the home assistant yaml files or something similar. it’s by no means great but at least you only have to get it working once and then it won’t change. why roll the dice over and over again?

@hagen the hope is to have a general personal assistant that simply does all the stuff you tell them, without first figuring out what other software you need to run it and a good place to integrate something somewhere

@fh0 sure but that’s not even how actual personal assistants work.

@hagen I don't think that matters, it's the reason why people use it instead of integrating it in homeassistant (your original question)

@tante The interesting thing about your observation is convinience.
You don't have to buy a device that you have to assemble, setup with absolutely unfamiliar software and configure all the things your self.
Now they set up one or two user accounts and will be guided quite comfortably through the setup.
This reveals the weakness FOSS always had: the lack of user experience.
I don't like these agents, but I wish we get motivated by this to do better UX in FOSS.

We used to just call it "automation."

@tante "How can we do this thing we could do already with way more compute so we can prop up the failing fossil fuel industry"
