I am building a home AI platform. Not a chat with a model, a platform: you give it a task, close the laptop, walk away; it does the work on its own and hands back the result later.
The reason is not saving on subscriptions. The reason is that some of my data I do not want to send outside at all, and some tasks I want to leave running overnight without questions about limits.
The hardware is a MacBook Pro M3 Pro, 36 GB. It is not a server, and that is the whole point of interest: almost everything I run into from here on will hit memory, not code.
The rule I put at the very start, and will keep bumping into all the way: the platform has no right to get in the way of my main work on the same machine.
From here on I will write it up step by step: what I wanted, what I stumbled on, what I decided, and what I pay for it.
