So, I have an automation that checks the month and applies a scene accordingly. I could never get it to work quite right though. Every time it was supposed to trigger a specific scene, it would just default to a base scene. I ran it through DDG AI and it found a single line that was causing the "choose" to fail and defaulted to the default scene. Not a fan of LLMs/AI but this actually helped.

The issue isn't with LLMs being used for what they ARE good at (quickly sorting and correlating data), but everyone trying to make it out to be BIGGER than that, and making awful products accordingly.
