HomePod mini's personal requests authentication issue

HomePod Mini needs me to authenicate personal requests constantly and the functionality is intermittent.

I made another post about this which I guess was locked out, but I tried absolutely everything and the HomePod in my kitchen is never able to recognize who I am. I just want to be able to update a shopping list in a single step without authenticating.

It is absolutely insane that I was able to build a voice assistant using a raspberry pi and an open source LLM with home assistant integration and you have not managed to bring Siri even close.

I’ve been a Mac user for my entire life, and you’re letting me down lately.

Get it together, Apple.
