Solving the Hallucination vs Documentation Gap for Local AI Agents
How CLI introspection and skills that tell agents to check docs first can reduce hallucinations in local AI agents.
DSM and Provable Memory for AI Agents - Why Relevance Beats Proof
Why provable memory systems like DSM are less useful than locally relevant AI profiles - agents need contextual memory, not cryptographically verified memories.
What to Do with Your Idle Custom PC - Convert It to an AI Agent Server
Repurpose your gaming PC as an AI agent homelab with Proxmox. Run local models, host always-on agents, and put that idle GPU to work.
First Speculative Decoding Across GPU and Neural Engine on Apple Silicon
Running two models on the same Apple Silicon chip - a 1B draft model on the Neural Engine and a larger model on GPU for faster local inference.
Tiny AI Models for Game NPCs - What Works Under 1B Parameters
Using small language models (500M-1.1B parameters) for game NPC dialogue in survival games. Benchmark data, what tiny models handle well, where they break, and why this matters for desktop agents.
Dedicated AI Hardware vs Your Existing Mac - Why a Separate Device Is Premature
Your Mac already has everything needed to run a full AI agent locally. Dedicated AI hardware adds cost and complexity without solving real problems.
