Happy Friday, fellow tech masochists and AI enthusiasts!
If you’ve been following the journey of Kiwi-chan, you know the drill: we are building a fully autonomous Minecraft agent that runs entirely on local hardware. No cloud APIs, no latency, no privacy leaks. Just raw, unadulterated inference power and a bot that tries to survive in a blocky void.
The last 4 hours have been a wild ride of hallucinations, biome betrayals, and the glorious transition to Qwen 35B. Let’s dive into the logs, the stats, and the sheer chaos of watching an AI learn to craft a door without a crafting table.
The Stats: A Love Letter to Inefficiency
First, let’s look at the numbers. Because in DevOps, if you aren’t crying over your metrics, are you even trying?
[Past 4 Hours Statistics]
- Total Actions: 3488
- Successes: 1640
- Success Rate: 47.0%
Yes, you read that correctly. 47.0%.
Is that bad? In a traditional software context, sure. You’d get fired. In the context of an LLM-driven agent trying to reason through Minecraft physics, crafting recipes, and pathfinding without a human holding its hand? That’s progress. That’s evolution.
Kiwi-chan isn’t just following a script; it’s thinking. And sometimes, it thinks wrong. But when it thinks right? It’s beautiful.
The Big Shift: Welcome Qwen 35B
The headline here is the migration to Qwen 35B. Why? Because we are committed to the "Fully Local" ethos. We wanted a model powerful enough to handle complex reasoning but lightweight enough to run on our local GPU cluster.
The transition hasn’t been seamless. Qwen is… opinionated. It loves to "think" in its head, often outputting raw text when it should be outputting JSON. But we’ve built a "Mind Reading" layer to extract the actual goal from the model’s internal monologue.
