More About Personal AI

March 29, 2025 -- Vancouver Hack Day - Personal AI

An overview of personal AI that is not owned by big tech and can be controlled by individuals.

Why It Matters

• Privacy: No profiling. Personal data stays local.
• Customization: Fine-tune and personalize models.
• Ownership: Full control over your tools, integrations, features roadmap.
• Resilience: No censorship or sudden API pricing or access changes.

I decided to build and host an object detection model pipeline by re-creating the infamous "not hot dog" app from the Silicon Valley tv show.
