After the recent news and overwhelmed by the constant updates and changes in the AI world, I've decided to build #BoomerClaw, my own reliable, self-hosted, independent, boomer-friendly AI assistant.
My requirements
- needs to run reliably without supervision
- accepts messy inputs (voice, text, links, files, screenshots, bookmarks…)
- handles failures gracefully
- outputs trustworthy work
- is cost-effective and mostly predictable
Current scenario
- Security problems (npm supply chain, python supply chain, github actions…)
- Memory problems (out of context, hallucinations, slop coding…)
- Token expense uncertainty & lack of control over model updates and pricing
- "The self-hosting overhead is real" (Mac minis, VPS management…)
I need a solid, reliable pipeline and that's what I am building.
