Thanks for the review of my custom integration. Extreamly well presented as always! I'll be working on the auto YAML output next, it's nearly there. And hopefully the local LLM if people would also like that. ❤

This is an amazing integration. Thank you to the developer and thank you. Bearded tinker for letting us know about it.

The timing of this video is perfect. I was at the HA get together at the Github office this last weekend. Paulus and Frank were there and during the discussion session, I and another participant talked about having a function that did something similar to the AI assistant. We said that we would like a function that looked at usage patterns, that it, who did what, with what entities and made suggestions about automations. AI Assistant is a good first step. I believe I will get involved in this project. Thanks.

Thanks for the video! I have never gone down the path of getting an API key. I see a lot of different models. Do you have a recommendation for someone new to API keys, please?

How does the billing work with these things. Presumably it doesn't bill 1c (or whatever) for each query. Do you pay in an amount up front that gets drawn down for each query, then top up when it gets low.

Hi!

Thanks for the video! Very interesting topic, to be honest I've started to prepare similar project but will hold on for a sec as this one seems to be mature enough. Not sure about part which says "will suggest automations based on newly added devices". What about existing ones, should I re-add all my integrations?
I hope that project will move thru all planned phases - well written maybe a game changer for home assistant which is far away from being ... inteligent. Also local Ollama / LMStudio would be a nice to have if this solution at some point will need to send a huge amount of data from SQL database logs to cloud.

It keeps telling me the Entity is unavailable. I tried with a new API Key and also checked the funding.

So if you have ChatGPT plus would you still get charged?

[rumunn]

so for the free plan this not working?

Sorry but as soon as you said it has to have access to an external "AI" processor, I lost interest which resulted in a thumbs down.
The whole idea and core purpose of home assistant is for local control. I won't have a 3rd party having access to devices on my network.
