I'm been slow getting on the AI train. I've used first github copilot, then switched to Cursor, not tried Windsurf. I've not tried any "cli AIs". For AI chat sites I'm mostly using Claude and (sadly) gemini (deepseek seems to have fallen behind). openai seemed to fall behind for a while but maybe they've caught up. I've not used grok or local AI yet.

I've not used any AI api yet, but spent yesterday reading gulag gemini docs (yes, I know it's jewgle but their free api keys seem very generous, no?). Currently I'm trying to create some easy custom for the AI use such as saving files, ls, and such. I think my first goal will be to use free gemini api keys and see if I can get the AI download it's documentation on the documentation site and convert every page of it from html to markdown, so that AI can know it's own documantation api (or so that I can print it all in one go) etc, I think such will be helpful in situations where I need an AI to understand apis (any such api that is exclusively on webpages. btw I hate documentation websites, just give me a documentation git repo or pdf with all documentation so I dont need to go from link to link to link).

You had any cool projects using AI? How do you progress to become an AI master?

My set up is just mildly complex. I have a crappy, cheap, fanless PC that runs a lot of self-hosted stuff, NAS, print server, calibre, etc. I use pi-hole, I have a gaming machine that is linux with a windows vm with a lot of hardware passed through. I'd just use linux for gaming, but I need to be able to run Izotope and I'm not able to get it to run in wine. I have an AI machine just for locally hosted AI, another linux fanless pc in my vocal booth just for recording using audacity. A few of my machines are either headless or run without a window manager. When I need to use a window manager, it's WindowMaker which really freaks people out. I've just used it so long that I don't see the point in changing. It's just a lot of computers and odds n ends. I have an ADSB antenna and feed these guys - https://www.adsbexchange.com/ - since I'm pretty close to the Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. A lot of old school and random.I'm finally getting around to replacing my HP 5 Laserjet because the last toner cartridge I could get working finally died and when I refilled it, yet again, it took a crap. Any toner cartridges have rotted at this point, so time to "upgrade." I just tend to have old or weird stuff.

People on Discord and in forums just assume I'm a tard and that I should be doing things in whatever way they do them. At least the Ai will just help and keep track of stuff for me since my memory is shot.

No cheating on the voice AI. It's all done through Amazon's stuff. It's all "cloud" and I can't download the files. I could probably record them or once it's published use one of the free codes and rip them, but it's not really worth it. They have software that checks and if you say it's a live voice and you use AI, your account will be terminated. I've got over 300 productions out there, so there's no way I'd risk my account.
