Desktop Assistant AI
Desktop Assistant AI is an experimental Windows assistant intended to help when a user is unsure what to do next, with particular emphasis on coding tasks. The current prototype combines a PyQt5 interface with screenshot context, OpenAI and Whisper integrations, speech recognition, and text-to-speech.
The project README explicitly describes the application as not currently useful as a finished product. Treat this repository as an early prototype rather than a production assistant.
Run the prototype
The setup targets Python 3.11. Run setup.ps1 to create the local virtual environment and install dependencies, then start the application with run.ps1.
The application loads speech models before presenting its main window. Review the repository’s setup notes and PowerShell security note before running its scripts.
