alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-10-29
A developer shows round #5 of their M5Stack-based StackChan desk robot, wired to a Grok bot via Nous Research's Hermes-Agent. The robot's lights now reflect thinking, emotions and dancing, adding atmosphere to conversations.
Recent updates include testing a classifier to sort memories, adding email support, and trying additional speech models — all being pushed to the repo for others to play with.
