The AI should be smarter. “That’s an alarm for Tuesday, right?” is a confirmation it could ask.

Which is why I don’t feel bad for verbally abusing it when I say “text [name] don’t forget to put those breadsticks away period if you don’t eat them comma I will” and the infernal machine does a google search for that instead sending a text to [name] with the message “Don’t forget to put those breadsticks away. If you don’t eat them, I will.”

Yeah assistant I wanted to see fuckin reddit threads loosely related to breadsticks and texting, I super didn’t want you to do the thing I explicitly said to do.

Just do it manually.

You absolutely can set an alarm for a specific day in google clock version 7.6 from the play store.

After you set the alarm if you click on it you can give it a name such as “laundry” and set it for a specific day such as “Sunday”

I have alarms for workdays and alarms for times to take medicine.

You can set an alarm for a early wake up for a flight time a week ahead of time if you want. The assist is super basic to protect you from doing dumb shit, but you absolutely can do it manually.

I think my Google Mini does ask? At the least, it confirms, “OK. I’ve set an alarm for $X.”

You got me thinking, need to experiment a bit.
