+## Voice & Assist
+
+This month, we're thrilled to bring more enhancements to Assist's out-of-the-box
+capabilities. We've added support for timers ⏲️ — our third most requested
+feature for voice control — and the powerful ability to expose your scrips
+to LLMs (like [ChatGPT] and [Google Gemini]) as well! 💪
+
+If you missed it, be sure to check out our recent Voice - Chapter 7 livestream
+from June 26th, where we showcased all these exciting developments. You can

+### Timers are here!
+
+You asked, and we listened! As of this release, timers are available. This
+feature allows you to create, cancel, pause, resume, and adjust timers using
+your voice, making everyday tasks like cooking much easier. And yes, you can
+set multiple timers at once! 🎉

+
+### Expand an LLM using your scripts
+
+You can now expand LLM capabilities by allowing them to access to (your choice)
+of your scripts. This feature lets you precisely control what the LLM does in
+specific situations, while still benefiting from the flexibility and natural
+language processing that AIs excel at.
+
+For example, you can create a _"leaving home"_ script that performs the actions
+you want and expose it to Assist. This ensures that commands like
+_"I'm heading out for a couple of minutes"_ will run your predefined script,
+such as locking the door without turning off the air conditioning.
