User builds fully local terminal AI companion with Codex-written code, Gemma, Whisper and voice cloning
SouthernFruit8768 · reddit · 2026-10-30
A user shared a fully local, terminal-based AI companion app with all code written by OpenAI Codex: llama.cpp running Google's Gemma locally, Whisper for speech recognition, and Resemblance AI's Chatterbox for one-shot voice cloning, with a Textual/Rich UI on an i9-12900K + RTX 3080 12GB. The tongue-in-cheek framing drew attention, but the stack shows a practical recipe for an offline voice-interactive AI build.
