Config not found · Reddit · 2026-04-06

Most Ambitious Automation Idea Yet... · Reddit · 2026-04-05
Okay - running HA 2026.4.1 on RPi 5. I have my own on-prem AI server, running ollama. Just got the Gemma4:e4b model (very snappy response times) which has Tools, Thinking, Vision, and Audio flags. I have a couple of Reolink cameras, connected to HA. So, here's my thought - Trigg…
