Last week I decided to turn my 2D game into a 3D one. There is something attractive to me about going vertical in a colony sim. So by lunch I had a plan. That afternoon my AI SDLC pipeline was building the tools that build the tools, two AI subagents were opening pull requests against three different repos, and I had spent an hour and some change making a third assistant argue that the whole pipeline was pointless.<br> More

Local AI Agents in LAIRD
I Shipped 12 of Them in a Free Game and Got 2 Downloads
The AAA industry is currently burning billions on cloud compute and server-side LLM APIs. Meanwhile, I just shipped a free game concurrently running 12 AI agents in LAIRD on consumer hardware with zero API latency. It got exactly 2 downloads. I am completely unfazed.
