My mini setup to control devices and entities at my home.
I have a pc on my bench with an 3080 GPU runnning ubuntu and home assistant, ollama and many other stuff on docker. Some kind of a home serverish machine I tried
In the demo I used Extended OpenAI Conversations. But the same is working with ollama on my local machine with HomeLLM and ollama integrations in home assistant.
For the model I’m using GPT-4o. On local Ollama I’m using the models fixt/home-3b and llama3
This amazing guy has a complete video about setting up home assistant with homeLLM using ollama and fixt/home-3b
And this amazing guy has some crazy videos about using Extended openAI conversations and AI with home assistant.
Some thoughts;
llama3 and fixt/home-3b is working fine, but since I have a switch to turn on my front and main lights sometimes they fail to parse the call correct. Because they try to turn on a “light” entity. but its actually a switch with a name of bridge front light.
All of them seem to fail to turn my servo tho. Probably my setup is wrong somehow.
GPT-4o seems to get it most times but not every time. Tho Extended OpenAI Conversations seems to be slightly better with taking and understanding actions in general. And a bit more stable.
I’m going to try to compare them more deeply if I get the time.
