Plenty to do with a homelab, don't get me wrong; LLM assistance is great. I'd be careful about letting a clanker bootstrap the whole thing though.

I think one of the big advantages of these robots slaves is they might take some of the maintenance burden of self-hosting

it's really just delegating and expanding cognitive ability. i've been running similar experiments, with great success. I already know how to do it, but in training an army of slaves with precise instructions, they do it for me. amazing times

i doubt the "expanding" part on a large scale we're going to see decline in cognitive ability but for those of us who can actually use the tools, it will be helpful

you're probably right for most people, although I hope that you're not. but for those who can leverage the tech.. godlike.
