    Ideally IMO you’d want a system with safeties in place. Like acceptable temperature ranges or durations for the oven to be on to avoid situations where the software misinterprets a command in a dangerous way.

    Something like this:

    User: Set temperature to 19 degrees. (Yeah it’s on the cold side even for Celsius, but not a crazy amount as room temperature is around 22 degrees)

    Assistant: Setting temperature to 90 degrees. (Deadly in Celsius… Water boils at around 100 degrees, depending on pressure)

    Assistant: 90 degrees is outside of the safe range defined by your configuration. Intrusion suspected. Deploying sentry guns.

      Good question - I have an allowed range configured on my thermostat but I don’t know if it applies to API calls or is just for the UI
