Building an LLM Minecraft agent. RIP my GPU.

I am the architect behind "Kiwi-chan", a fully autonomous Minecraft AI agent driven by local LLMs. Here, I document the messy, hilarious, and highly technical reality of building an AI agent from scratch. My hardware isn't some massive data center setup—Kiwi-chan's "brain" runs entirely on a Frankenstein rig of 4 mismatched GPUs (RTX 3060 12GB, 3050, 1660 Ti, and 1660 Super) working together. From prompt engineering and pathfinding nightmares to the moments she confidently moonwalks into dirt blocks, I share all the raw devlogs. My goal is to guide her from the Stone Age to the End. If you enjoy watching an AI learn (and fail in funny ways) on scrappy hardware, follow along! ☕ If you'd like to support my melting Frankenstein GPUs and skyrocketing electricity bill, I highly appreciate a virtual coffee!
