Sovereign intelligence

BABY AI

Private, sovereignSovereignFully self-contained and under your control. A sovereign AI runs on your hardware with no external services, no corporate logging, and no policy changes you didn't agree to. AI that runs entirely on your hardware. From a private desktop chat app to a swarm of zero-dependency specialist binariesSpecialist binariesTiny compiled programs — typically 35 KB — each built for one specific domain (first aid, pool chemistry, HVAC). No model weights, no internet, no subscription. that fit in 50 KB. No cloud, no logs, no compromise.

Why local

Cloud AI is a liability.

You don't own the policy

Every message you send to ChatGPT lives on someone else's servers. Privacy policies change. "We don't train on your data" covers today, not next quarter.

Open models, your hardware

Powered by OllamaOllamaAn open-source tool that runs AI language models locally on your Mac. Baby AI Lite uses it as its engine — install Ollama once, add any model, and you have a private AI with no cloud connection. — the same runtime indie devs use for local AI. Bring any model you want. Swap them anytime.

Verifiable, not a promise

Unplug your Wi-Fi mid-conversation. The app keeps working. That's the only privacy proof that matters.

Architecture — Baby AI v2

Four planes, one pipeline

Baby AI v2 runs a four-step cognitive loop — the same sequence a biological brain uses. Not an LLM wrapper. Not a rules engine. A compact, auditable loop written in Light Code that you can read in full. Each plane operates on the same 64-byte concept grid.

Predict

Generates an expectation before acting. Weights update from past outcomes. Outputs a confidence score the Decide plane reads. Running in v2 today.

Decide

Seven-step loop on 64 bytes. Reads the PREDICT confidence map and picks an action with traceable reasoning. Verified and running.

Create

Recursive Forge engine builds ConceptChains from goal to output. Seeded from memory, PREDICT surprise, and DECIDE history. 105 tests passing. All four planes wired and running.

Learn

Observes every outcome and refines all three planes. Written in Light Code. Persists learned patterns to sovereign memory, tagged by concept byte.
