I've been loving using Gemini to write programs for eISY, The only problem I have is that its not connected, so it spits out a program, but I have to work thru the menu's to implement it. Not always easy.

The last program I wrote was for a bathroom ceiling fan, I grouped a SensorPush humidity sensor, An AC Infinity Fan, along with a remote fan speed 1-10.

I didn't know isy programming had math, AI pointed that out and I was able to compare 2 humidity sensors, one in the bathroom and one in a hallway. I said if the humidity was 7% more in the bathroom to turn on the fan to remove the humidity. AI set me up a few programs to step down the fan speed as it dried out in the bathroom. It works like a champ, but I had to key it all in,

WISH - If AI could output some text formatted output that I could import into ISY for my program. This way I can use any AI I like

Also, would like to have a way in eISY to ask the AI..

"Is device ZY070_1 used in any program or notification and when was the last time it was used"

I would expect both comments will be available in an upcoming release. Did you see the "ai teaser" post that @Michel Kohanim posted recently? That looks impressive. I know in a demo at a recent webcast Michel seemed to indicate that the hope was to use regular language for an AI promot and it would actually create the program within the eisy system. I'm sure that's a big hope, but I also expect that it will come with a pricetag. While AI is nice and interesting to "play" with I'm not quite sure I'm ready "geek" out with it entirely to operate my house. There's a limit (for me) in letting the robots take over portions of my life. But, based on what Michel posted in the link it seems that it would be able to find what you're asking about in the program and notifications.

@awysocki ,

1. You can choose your LLM/model: Claude, OpenAI/ChatGPT, Grok, and Gemini ... from our tests, Gemini is by far the worst. It's slow and inconsistent

2. eisy-ai is fully integrated with eisy-ui, so you can do precisely what you are suggesting: as for a complex program to be created, AI does it and it automatically shows up in eisy-ui AND ask questions regarding programs, events, devices in programs, and why this or why that including "Is device ZY070_1 used in any program or notification and when was the last time it was used".

With kind regards,
Michel

@Michel Kohanim will it also have support for a local AI for those that are already dabbling in that realm?

@tazman ,

Under the hoods, yes it does [ link ] but not currently in the plugin because it makes testing infinitely harder due to sheer number of the permutations of models, parameters, etc.

If you are geek, you can clone the repo and play with it (outside of eisyui).

I would hope there’s a master switch to turn all these AI features off. The last thing I’d want to see are AI buttons all over an interface when I don’t use any AI to do that. I have enough of that my daily work with Microsoft products constantly shoving AI down my throat and getting in the way of me completing real work.

@SJK ,

As mentioned, eisy-ai is a plugin. There is a master switch, and it's you! Just don't install it!

With kind regards,

I for one have been very leery about allowing AI to gain access to folders and programs on my main computer just for security reasons, and paranoia. However, I have been following along on this topic with interest. I expect that if Michel and team are offering this as a plug-in, this must be safe, or reasonably safe. Otherwise, they would not offer it. I'm all in.
