Is there an LLM/ChatGPT based alternative for Google's Voice Assistant on android? I see that as the most appropriate use case. ChatGPT will do many times better than Google Assistant (or may be Siri, not an iPhone user).
- jimmygrapes 3y agoI keep getting reminded by my phone to switch to using Gemini instead of the old assistant, fwiw
- smusamashah 3y agoThanks. I was looking for this. After a bit of search found the gemini app. Installed it and set that as assistant. It is slower bet recognition is definitely better than assistant.
- LanternLight83 3y agoNot that I'm aware of, but I've ran LLM's in Termux myself and am pretty it's not a huge leap from there to a simple python scaffold with a restricted grammer (the kind llama supports, for consistant structured output) and a Tasker integration. Hardest part would be trigger-word activation (maybe hardware key-bind is enough fr u?). It would probably run well locally with the all the cumulative speedups over the past year, but I do bet it would drain your battery more than Google Assistant, and am not sure that moving it over the network would change that.
- smusamashah 3y agoAs the other comment suggested, can just install gemini app and switch to it as assistant https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.bard&hl=en_US&gl=US https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.and... It may not be as good as ChatGPT but will be good enough for things we want android assistant to do.
- mdrzn 3y ago"The Gemini app is available only in English in the US" another great restriction
