Could you build this?
No Training or distilling a custom lightweight language/decision model optimized for CPU inference with strict typed outputs requires deep machine learning research and systems optimization. Vibe coding cannot automate model architecture design, custom dataset curation, and quantized CPU runtime tuning.
What it would actually take: Building Gutsy requires designing an efficient transformer or recurrent/SSM architecture (e.g., via PyTorch/JAX), fine-tuning or distilling it for constrained JSON/type outputs (using tools like Outlines or llama.cpp grammar sampling), and compiling the runtime using C++/ONNX/GGML for low-latency CPU execution. The core challenge is achieving high reasoning and schema compliance within strict CPU compute and memory budgets, requiring specialized ML systems engineering.
