Very cool. I like the circular display, looks very nice. Thanks for sharing!

On a high level, the goal you want to achieve is what the OpenSprinkler-Weather script is doing, except our weather algorithm isn’t using gen AI at the moment. The weather script runs on a cloud server, and the firmware queries it every few hours to get the watering percentage.

I imagine a local (non-cloud) AI-based solution can be very useful for adding computer vision to the controller. For example, turn on sprinklers when there are cats or wild animals on the lawn. It can also be used to add voice recognition capabilities.
