Same boat. Tools like this and Gemini make managing my ADHD sooooo much easier. Having a JARVIS-esque “AI personal assistant” would make a lot of my struggles less debilitating. I’d even be willing to pay, as long as the data stayed private.
My working memory is terrible. If I don’t write something down, it’s likely forgotten. I’ve always tried to keep a pen and paper on me, to varying degrees of success. Now, instead I can “Hey Google, add x to my grocery list” and it’ll add it to my shopping list in Keep, or “… Create a reminder/alarm/event for…” for reminders to empty the dishwasher in 45 minutes or remember that I just agreed to plans on Saturday.
I’m not a huge fan of Google anymore, but I still willingly use their services because the tradeoff is that beneficial to me.
I think local voice to text algorithms have gotten pretty freaking accurate. You’d need a way to activate listen, send it over the router, then receive the output signal to an Arduino/Raspberry Pi to switch something on or off. I’m sure it’s not terribly difficult to design, but I bet the subscription model is so lucrative no one with the know how would offer a local version.

Can you elaborate on this?

That makes sense. Thanks!
