Home Assistant’s voice assistant is more capable than you think — here’s what it’s been hiding

If you’re tired of closed-source smart home ecosystems like Alexa and Google Home, then Home Assistant can give you far more freedom. If you miss voice commands, you can use the native Assist voice assistant in Home Assistant. While hooking it up to an LLM can give Assist natural language understanding, there’s a lot more you can do with the default version of Assist than you might think.
