Could you build this?
Partial A local AI assistant wrapper is straightforward to vibe-code, but implementing continuous, incremental online learning or continual fine-tuning on a single low-memory machine without catastrophic forgetting is non-trivial.
What it would actually take: The product claims to be 'self-learning' from user input. A real implementation likely uses lightweight LoRA adapters, retrieval-augmented memory architectures (vector databases like Chroma/Qdrant), or continual fine-tuning scripts running on Ollama/llama.cpp. Doing this reliably on a 16GB consumer device requires expertise in efficient model fine-tuning (PEFT, QLoRA) and local model inference optimization.
