Trying out the new OpenAI-based control features.

Define it a prompt. A good prompt will help the AI a lot. Use GPT to create one, seriously it helps a lot. Mine doesn't get confused that much since I've added a ~100 line prompt

good callout!

I later figured out that this particular thing was a misconfiguration issue (forgot the details though).

It now works pretty well for me, with the exception of my top down / bottom up blinds (i.e. you can control them both ends), which for some reason it still gets confused about, no matter how clearly I describe its functioning in the prompt :)

Weird, it might be due to how these controls work. TBH, I’ve only used it for basic switches, dimmers, and retrieving sensor data (e.g., temperature & humidity), but I have no idea how well it behaves with other entities like thermostats or your blinds controls.
