I do, I use ollama. I mostly just tinker, but I use with with home assistant for a quasi Alexa like experience with the voice assistant, I use it for summarizing some YouTube transcripts in too lazy to read/watch, and I've tried to see how capable it is with coding.
Can you elaborate on what you are using exactly with home assistant ? And is English your primary language in that context ?
Trying to do something similar, English not primary and its a bit... Harder than it seems. Can't figure out if it is because I'm not using English or something else. (3060 12GB BTW)
English is my primary, so that does make it easier. I use it for general conversion things, like asking it questions about the Titanic or making up a new story or something. It doesn't work as well as I'd like yet, but like I said, it's just an other thing for me to mess around with and change.
