I asked it to turn on my office light this morning. The speaker turned it on, my phone turned it off. This assistant is one step up from worthless because it can't be relied on.

The other day I asked it to start a timer and instead it played a song on Spotify that was called something similar to "Timer" and when I asked it to stop, it turned off my TV.

Oh it's infuriating if you're playing two kinds of media in different parts of the house. We even pay for YT premium! The assistant hasn't been good for almost 3 years now.

It was great in the beginning but back then they had actual humans who transcribed what they heard to train the model.
When they stopped having human operators and started trusting the model everything went to shit.
