Dave launched a handheld AI-powered version of GLaDOS’s potato battery body from Portal 2.
The project uses an Nvidia Jetson Orin Nano packed inside a 3D-printed potato casing. No real potatoes powering it here—the Jetson needs way more juice than a spud can provide.
Dave ran the system fully offline. He loaded Llama 3.2 for chat, trimmed down to run locally. Then hooked it up with LlamaIndex to pull info from the Portal wiki. He tweaked prompts with a prompt engineer to nail GLaDOS’s trademark sarcasm. 
Speech? That’s Piper, trained on Portal wiki audio. Voice recognition runs on Vosk, which Dave admits was a coding challenge due to spotty docs.
All code is open source under the name PotatOS on GitHub.
The final device dishes out sarcastic insults on request. Dave’s smart enough not to let this toxic potato control his home.
Watch it insult you in the wild here:
