Major changes from v1:

• Uses a trained intent-based classifier that allows much better command recognition

• New, more natural-sounding text-to-speech engine
• Improved structure that makes it easier to add future commands

Features:

• Hands-free experience with speech recognition
• AI capability, with the ability to interpret your screen
• Natural language processing allows for varitations in commands
• Natural-sounding text to speech

Commands:

• "open": Opens an app
• "ask ai...": Asks AI
• "shut down": Shut down with confirmation
• "restart": Restart with confirmation
• "sleep": Sleep
• "close": Closes an app,
• "time": Gets the current time,
• "timer": Sets a timer for x hours, x minutes, and x seconds

Usage:

.exe file coming soon. For now, clone the repo onto your device, create your own API keys for GROQ and Pixabay (both free) and fill them in for the variables, then run main.py.

Planned updates:

I plan to add back the offline AI capability and browser functions from v1. I am also currently working on fixing the notes system, which doesn't work most times.

• "open": Opens an app
• "ask ai": Asks AI, available both online and offline
• "show": Shows Pixabay images of your request in the browser
• "go to": Goes to the requested website
• "search": Searches for the requested search term
• "shut down": Shut down with confirmation

Initially called Styne (after Einstein), the name was changed to Astro after speech recognition difficulties.
