I ponder the concept in the 90's. Initially I thought it should be an assistant but with age came wisdom and now I think it should be a virtual drill instructor. "Rise and shine $insult $insult, the sun is up, the store is open, we will be getting some potatoes today, $insult $insult, it was all your idea now apply yourself!" Bright lights flashing, loud music, the shower starts running. "Shower time, you have 7 minutes! $insult $insult" 4 minutes in the coffee machine boots up. "You will be wearing the blue pants, top shelve on the left stack, the green shirt, 7th from the left. Faster faster! $insult $insult"
This sounds a lot like gptars. I want a little gptars tearing around my house.
A local AI system that hears your conversations, identifies problems, and then uses spare cycles to devise solutions for them is actually an incredible idea. I'm never going to give a cloud system the kind of access it would need to do a really good job, but a local one I control? Absolutely.
"Hey, are you still having trouble with[succinct summary of a problem it identified]?" "Yes" "I have a solution that meets your requirements as I understand them, and fits in your budget."
