The future is here. Welcome to the first truly ‘smart’ home. Turn your Local AI device into more than just a token generating machine.
This is SparkHome.
Connect any remote, create any app, play any game. SparkHome utilizes my GameSpark optimizations for GB10 to run AAA games. Meanwhile, a local voice agent can interpret commands like - ‘vacuum the living room’ or ‘dim the lights’ and take actions around my home.
Missing a feature or function? Just ask - the SparkHome itself is a harness for agents to build, interact with and improve upon. It’ll spawn Qwen and get cookin!
Need to optimize a game for GB10, Apple Silicon? Point a more powerful frontier model at GameSpark and optimize it iteratively.
Today, my SparkHome runs my streaming services, a catalogue of Steam games, a MicroDuck training ground, a local voice agent with fast paths and connections to IoT devices like my SharkClean vacuum and smart lamps.
You really can just ask the computer…
alex funk (@alexzfunk): yeah, software is kinda solved. i reverse engineered gen 1 apple tv remote in ~45 minutes?
it runs on linux over bluetooth, open source
