Opinions about Hey Lucid

[borski]

Respectfully, you and I are going to differ on this. We find the native Google Assistant in our other EV to be generally accurate and capable. Google has said their next step is to replace Assistant with their Gemini LLM. I'm looking forward to it.

I do respect that. As a counterpoint, I have had Google Assistant get things right like 30% of the time on average. Siri is like 70%. Alexa is like 15%.

Lucid Assistant is like 5%, but I can excuse this a bit because it’s new and they’ve only *built* like 10-15% of it lol, so I can’t fully judge it yet.

But they all suck, imho.

My “Hey Lucid” doesn’t work unless I press the button on the steering wheel and then it doesn’t understand a thing I say….

I think the issue with mine is that they didn’t program her to respond to “Hey Luci” which is her name.
Sheesh, Lucid… what’s up with that?

We're around 95% accuracy with Google Assistant. We use it about 20x per day at home, and 2-3x per day in the car.

In current generation, general-purpose voice assistants, Google is currently the clear leader. I'm really looking forward to their introduction of LLM processing. IMO Amazon's Alexa won't compete well. Will Lucid? To be seen.

My entire house is run on Alexa, and I've never had an issue. I even have Alexa for the TV. Only problem I really have is it pipes in any time anything comes close to the sound of "Alexa".

I use google assistant on my phone, and for the car when I had Android Auto. It worked perfectly as well.

Hey Lucid is an abomination. It's completely useless.

Give me Android Auto!!!
