Home automation = hours/days arsing about, to save seconds or maybe even nothing in reality.

You cannot realy believe that because you already have a lot of automaton in your house it's just not all joined up with a unified majordomo. So it's all about where you are in the automaton onion layers, where you automate everything on the outside and you just have digital thermometer on the inside. Between them are just layers but if you peel down the layers it still looks like any other onion. So home automation is about layers, if you have anything automatic you must have home automtion. QED

Time to take it up from HA doing a lot ( and working surprisingly well ) . Local LLM gold standard 💪

I read recently that openAI said 99% use ChatGPT as a toy . Without spending a fortune on say Claude tokens chat gives the best of both worlds for me ; creativity and technical. It stuns me that after the internet and now LLM that people just don’t leverage the capabilities they have access to . Still as you say depends what layer you are at on the onion …

I do have a legacy UFH manifold controller with room sensors. It's connected to heat pump, a simple standalone timer to immersion, and standalone PIR sensors to various outside lights.

 

The other automation I have is related to battery, but that is via the GivEnergy portal to control charge times.

 

Home assistant is used but as simple monitoring tool, it has 2 automations, one to collect solar forecast, the other to tell me if PV generated is behind forecast, so I can check to make sure nothing has tripped off or panels aren't dirty. Nothing that actually matters if they don't work.
