This is kind of insane.
I built an AI that runs entirely offline on a Mac mini and it works with the wifi turned off for zero API costs.
It remembers every machine error and every fix. You say the code out loud and it knows exactly what broke and how to fix it.
A 3B model is doing this. Fully offline. For free.
Full build and repo in the article below.
