It's wild just how much they're trying to shove AI down our throats.

So it talks to your media box exclusively and your media box summons the streaming services?

    I've got a Home Assistant server hooked into homekit with voice (via an Apple HomePod). I can say something like "turn on home theater" and it will turn on the receiver, TV, and Apple TV, and will set the receiver to the Apple TV's input.

    Then, other automations. Like, I've got a Lytmi Fantasy 3 Pro light strip behind my TV, and when I launch video (via streaming, plex, whatever) on the Apple TV, it will automatically turn off the living room lights except for the color strip. Then if I stop or pause the video, it will turn them back on. Stuff like that.

    Only drawback is the TV doesn't do wake on LAN unless you use the ethernet connection. If you want it wireless, you gotta use CEC instead, but that's not too big a deal.
