RTX 5090

⚡ TL;DR Built a robot car controlled entirely by an LLM (Qwen3.5-27B on an RTX 5090) — no traditional control code The AI sees through a camera, reads ultrasonic sensors, and issues direct motor commands every ~1.3 seconds It follows me through the house autonomously for 15+ minute sessions — and has crashed into a plant pot twice Key insight: qualitative reasoning goes to the AI, quantitative enforcement goes to traditional code The operating system is optimized for a user that isn’t there anymore Operating systems were built for humans. What happens when the user is an AI? I built a robot car to find out. ...

After months of anticipation and planning, the RTX 5090 finally launched and it was time to bring my AI/ML powerhouse to life. This is more than just a computer build - it’s the foundation for exploring the cutting edge of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Every component was carefully selected to maximize performance for training neural networks, running inference, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with consumer AI hardware. ...

📚 Series Building an SLM Powerhouse Part 1 of 2 View all posts in this series → Building My AI Workstation: Kicking Off the Project Over the past few years, I’ve watched the evolution of AI move from research labs into the everyday workflows of business, productivity, and creativity. Models that once required massive clusters are now accessible to individuals, and the frontier is shifting toward Specialized Language Models (SLMs) — models tuned for specific domains, tasks, and contexts. ...
