Hey there — and welcome to the big and small world of LittleBit.
This blog is about something I’ve always wanted: smart technology that actually fits into real life. Not just gadgets. Not just apps. I’m talking about personal, intuitive tools powered by AI — like voice assistants you build yourself, automations that know your routines, and smart homes that feel more, well, human.
It all started when I asked a simple question:
“Why can’t I just talk to my TV the way I talk to ChatGPT?”
So, I’m attempting to build it.
That led to more ideas. A blog was the next logical step — a place to document what I’m learning, what I’m building, and what you can build too.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Tutorials on voice-controlled tech using things like Raspberry Pi and Python
- Custom AI assistant experiments (yes, I named mine LittleBit)
- Reviews of smart devices and integrations
- Thoughts on how AI can be helpful — not just flashy
Whether you’re into DIY automation, building your own assistant, or just curious how to make tech work for you, you’re in the right place. There will be a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and just a little bit of everything we do every day — so feel free to comment, share, and collaborate along the way.
Let’s make personal tech actually feel personal.

P.S. This post, crafted by me and LittleBit, was published to WordPress manually. It was supposed to be automatic, but we ran into what looks like a legacy permission issue on the hosting side. More to come — we’re already working on fixing that for the next post. For the technically minded: we wrote a Python script that publishes directly through the WordPress API from my terminal. We’re also building a mobile trigger using Pipedream to post from a phone or tablet. Stick around. Pretty cool, right?
