It's over. It's done. I am releasing a project I've been working on for myself today called Odicus.

Google, I don't have tissues, but I have baby wipes. No more smoobling. Adobe.

baby wipes. No more smoobling. Adobe.

More like uh do not be no. No, that's

not right. I do be THINKING YOU [ __ ] YOU GET THE POINT. STUPID.

OH, this is is my response. It is out.

It is free. No tracking, no subscriptions, no funny business.

It's yours and yours forever. Okay,

pinky promise. The best way I can describe it is Odysius is an AI workspace. Doesn't sound interesting.

workspace. Doesn't sound interesting.

Fine. But let me explain. Basically,

it's Claude and Chat Gypty's web UI, but self-hosted. So, you get access to all

self-hosted. So, you get access to all of it, but better because let one thing be crystal clear. Okay,

I hate everything in this project. All

of it. If it could go away forever and I have the power to, I would not hesitate.

We live in a world that, you know what, it doesn't matter. We live in a world.

I'll end there. The best way I can describe this is to explain how it came to be. When I started self-hosting, I

to be. When I started self-hosting, I started to try and self-host AI. And to

me, that felt so powerful. Like I'm

living in some sci-fi universe and this is all on my computer. That's crazy. The

point is, do you realize the model that you can run at home are amazing? The

problem is the way you interact with the model. Okay, cuz I at the time I was

model. Okay, cuz I at the time I was trying to self-host the UI for it to get the same experience as I was paying my subscriptions for. And I realized all

subscriptions for. And I realized all these things that sort of come together and make uh this an amazing experience was completely missing. Where's my

memory? Where's my deep research? What

about the agent? What about ALL THESE SIMPLE INTEGRATIONS LIKE WEB HOOKS? I

GOT I SPENT LIKE TWO DAYS TRYING TO integrate that. So that's why I started

integrate that. So that's why I started to build my own. And I thought it was funny as a meme. I'm like, "Look, the computer is building the computer cuz I was making it code itself." It's a bit

of a lark. I shared that on this channel. In fact, the my council thing

channel. In fact, the my council thing became a whole thing. I I don't know why. It's hidden somewhere in the code,

why. It's hidden somewhere in the code, by the way. If you want to dig it up, that's fine. I never thought I would

that's fine. I never thought I would actually release this project, but at some point, I'm like, "This is getting kind of good. I prefer this. This is

better now." So that's why I'm sharing it with you because I realized something very important.

The more you share about yourself with AI, the better it becomes. The more it understands you, your preferences, your

past experiences, your workflow, your work, your documents, your computer, the more you give it access, the the better it works. But the more you do that, the

it works. But the more you do that, the more you're handing over a huge piece of yourself to all these giant tech companies. And that's a huge trust that

companies. And that's a huge trust that you're hand handing over, okay? And

unless you go to their website and find the specific page where you can delete all your data and then just hoping they actually do it, you probably shouldn't do that. So that's why I realized like

do that. So that's why I realized like this project just makes more and more sense. I built it for self-hosting, but

sense. I built it for self-hosting, but you can use it with API as well and use any model you want obviously. And at

that point, at least you own your own data. All your data is yours as it

data. All your data is yours as it should be. And maybe you don't care

should be. And maybe you don't care about any of this stuff. That's fine.

It's still just a great experience to be honest. And I'll share why. Now, so

honest. And I'll share why. Now, so

here's the thing. I built Odysius because I believe in privacy and self-hosting. All these companies, it

self-hosting. All these companies, it may not seem like a big thing, and I agree. It's it's not like, oh no, all

agree. It's it's not like, oh no, all this private stuff, all these secrets.

It's not even about that. It's about the principle. If maybe you don't care about

principle. If maybe you don't care about your private data, the reality is these companies abuse it. Your private info, your address, your phone number, your

relatives, a scary level of information is stored about you and it's traded between companies. If you get spam phone

between companies. If you get spam phone calls, it's likely that your data has been taken by it and sold to these company to try and scam you or sell you stuff. They can open credit cards in

stuff. They can open credit cards in your names and it's like, "Hey, hey, look at me. I'm I'm big tech right now.

Oh no. Oh, we leaked everyone's data again. Oh no." Anyway, you just clearly

again. Oh no." Anyway, you just clearly can't trust them with it. So that's why Odysius and self-hosting just makes sense. But what about all the data that

sense. But what about all the data that is already out there? What about that?

That's where today's sponsor comes in, Incogn. Because the good news is that

Incogn. Because the good news is that it's you have the right to get your data deleted off from these companies. But

the problem is that takes a lot of effort, hundreds of hours. Are you going to do that? You probably have better things to do. You just sign up to Incogn.

Looking at your Incogn dashboard is super satisfying because you see your data getting scraped. Bada bing, bada boom, no more. This seemed like impossible in the past. It's like a

thing to not even attempt because it was too difficult. Also, get an extra level

too difficult. Also, get an extra level of protection with Incogn's custom removal feature. If there's any info

removal feature. If there's any info about you online that you don't like, you have the power to remove it. Just

send it to Incogn's team and they'll get to work. So, Incogn

to work. So, Incogn Odysius is your future. So, thank you Incogn for sponsoring this video. Right

now, they have an offer for 60% off.

That's pretty good. Check it out. I

entered the code PewDiePie. Link is in description. That's incogn.com/

description. That's incogn.com/

PewDiePie. Thank you, Incogn. First of

all, it has an agent. Obviously, I never thought I would be able to integrate an agent, but I literally just stole Open Code. Open Code is really good. If you

Code. Open Code is really good. If you

never used an agent before, it it's basically giving AI the opportunity.

You give AI the chance to run on your computer. So you can download files, run

computer. So you can download files, run files, create files, edit files, browse the web, all this stuff. As an example, yesterday I had a video file that I want to transcribe so I can work on it. I

said, "Hey, can you transcribe this video file?" It found the file on my

video file?" It found the file on my other computer. It converted the file

other computer. It converted the file format. It ran Whisper to transcribe the

format. It ran Whisper to transcribe the audio and then it shared the transcription back to me. And that's a medium difficult level task for an agent. I would say it is incredible what

agent. I would say it is incredible what they can do now, even on your own computer. It's funny. I read a book that

computer. It's funny. I read a book that I reviewed on this channel years ago before all this nonsense happened. The

scientist Max Tigmike, he brought up this like hypothetical doomsday AI scenario and it sounds exactly like an AI agent.

So, I know what you're thinking. Let's

go quicker.

The agent is self-evolving. So, it might find it a little difficult the first time you do a task, but then it will write itself its own instruction. So

next time it can do it much quicker. It

also extracts memories from your conversation. So the more you use it,

conversation. So the more you use it, the more it will become nice to engage with it this year. The more it will understand you. It's kind of jarring to

understand you. It's kind of jarring to look at your memories cuz it's such a personal thing. Yeah, this is all true.

personal thing. Yeah, this is all true.

I'm glad I'm the one who owns this file and not all these other tech companies.

You know what I mean? It really paints a picture how much information how easily they can gather stuff from you just from basic AI queries. Hey, emails. I suck at

emails. I've always sucked at emails. I

emails. I've always sucked at emails. I

hate emails. Let me share you with you a memory I have and maybe you can relate.

It was probably like Yeah, it was probably like 10 years ago. I was on a trip in Japan on holiday and I got an email from my accountant saying, "We need your signature on this file. We

need it by tomorrow and if you don't do it in time, there's going to be a penalty for you to pay." Great.

Fantastic. What an amazing accountant. I

remember what I thought at the time. I

thought, "Wow, great thing that I check my email so frequently." That's what I thought. That's a thought that no one

thought. That's a thought that no one should ever think. What the [ __ ] No.

No. We should not live like this. It's

[ __ ] insanity. So, I made it so the AI will read your emails and it's okay because it's a local AI, so it doesn't matter. You're not giving away any

matter. You're not giving away any information. And it flags if it's

information. And it flags if it's urgent. It tells me I can do whatever I

urgent. It tells me I can do whatever I want the whole week and I feel like it's time to reply to emails. I reply to emails. That's at least how I want to

emails. That's at least how I want to live. And yes, I built an email client.

live. And yes, I built an email client.

I I don't I didn't want to, but it was just easier. Example number two. Okay, I

just easier. Example number two. Okay, I

got an email not too long ago where someone asked me something so stupid. It

really solidified why I added this feature, which is AI auto reply. Someone

asked me that they could have done themsel. It was literally just you had

themsel. It was literally just you had all the information. You just needed to do a basic search. Because this agent has auto reply, it had already done the search and written the reply. So all I

had to do was click auto reply, review it. Yeah, it was correct sent. And it

it. Yeah, it was correct sent. And it

felt like the most polite [ __ ] you to someone that they will never know cuz I I don't think AI should write your emails. But sometimes Yeah. Yeah. It's

emails. But sometimes Yeah. Yeah. It's

pretty nice actually. I take it back.

There's also like basic summary and all that stuff that just makes it a little easier. Am I the only one with these

easier. Am I the only one with these problems? I feel like I'm the only one

problems? I feel like I'm the only one with these problem. I cannot be the only one with these problems. Is this how we want to live? This is comes with deep research. This is a feature that a lot

research. This is a feature that a lot of AI companies will sell their product to. They're like, "Hey, pay for our

to. They're like, "Hey, pay for our subscription and look, you can get as much reaches as you want." I asked friends if they use AI research and they're like, "OH, FUCK." WHY NOT? IT'S

AWESOME. IF I'M GOING to buy a product, I don't want to look through a bunch of stuff online. Boring. AI, you do it. I

stuff online. Boring. AI, you do it. I

stole this, as I mentioned, from Chinese Lab. It was Tongi Labs, by the way. But

Lab. It was Tongi Labs, by the way. But

I also now have improved on it a lot. It

has a visual version for it. You can

chat about the result, inquire further from there. I feel like if there's ever

from there. I feel like if there's ever more extra info that you need about something, it's a really nice way to get that information. Number three, document

that information. Number three, document editor. They can write files for you

editor. They can write files for you live so you can see it and review it yourself. I think this is the right

yourself. I think this is the right approach that I kept throughout. I don't

want AI to do the work for me or replace the work. I want to do it and it can

the work. I want to do it and it can help if if I wanted to. So, I stole this uh document editor idea from Claude.

It's really good, but I can't type in it. I don't want AI to do the work for

it. I don't want AI to do the work for me. It types terribly and it sounds

me. It types terribly and it sounds [ __ ] It sounds like AI immediately, but if I type whatever I want, I can just tell it, hey, fix the formatting, fix

the spelling, and all that or or fact check this piece here. I think it really shows how I look at AI. Like, it's a tool, and it's not meant to replace what

I'm doing. It can write emails, code,

I'm doing. It can write emails, code, PDFs, and a fancy dog. It can even sign documents. I don't know if that's a

documents. I don't know if that's a great idea, but hey, it can. It's

actually a really nice workflow because let's say you're working on something like you're writing and you want to look something up instead of having to tab out and look and Google or whatever. No,

no, no. You don't do that. You can just ask the model to look it up. It also

comes with search built in. Search for

AI can actually cost a lot of money. So,

the fact that it's free, we don't have to talk about how it did that because Google might not like it, but it is free and it's private. I hate sounding so

suspicious, but I I genuinely I don't know. Here's the best kicker. It has a

know. Here's the best kicker. It has a calendar. It has to-do notes. I

calendar. It has to-do notes. I

literally just copy pasted Google Keep, but it is good. Okay, you can also, of course, create your own characters to chat with. My favorite goblin. What a

chat with. My favorite goblin. What a

guy. You can even create a group chat with them. I created this and I'm like,

with them. I created this and I'm like, what the [ __ ] am I doing? This is

[ __ ] sad. Why am I making fake group chats? Jesus Christ. Well, it's there

chats? Jesus Christ. Well, it's there and it works, you know, but it has so much more because I'm an epic minimalist. Everything is in one

epic minimalist. Everything is in one place. I don't have to think about

place. I don't have to think about trying to integrate it with other [ __ ] things. It's just one place and it works. So, I recommend checking it

it works. So, I recommend checking it out. Is that it? Oh, [ __ ] I forgot.

out. Is that it? Oh, [ __ ] I forgot.

Cookbook. It has Cookbook. Cookbook

solves all the problems with self-hosting AI. BF16, FB8, ABQ, what

self-hosting AI. BF16, FB8, ABQ, what the [ __ ] is a gagust?

There is so much to know when you're trying to self-host AI and I went, this is cookbook is my way to try and make it more simple. There are more simple

more simple. There are more simple programs that you can run, but I feel like they make it too simple. You miss

out all the magic. Cookbook can download models. It scans your hardware, which is

models. It scans your hardware, which is the most difficult thing. Like when

you're trying to self-host AI, what can I actually run on my computer? I don't

know. all these things to variables to take into account. It gives you a score.

Just go with the score. I found amazing models through this. You can also serve the model directly in cookbook and it's just added directly into Odysius. I

remember sometimes just adding the [ __ ] endpoint was such a problem like oh I'm sorry I forgot to write /w1 after or was it model or models? Why doesn't

either [ __ ] work? It just adds it automatically. I don't have to think

automatically. I don't have to think about it. It solves all the pain of

about it. It solves all the pain of self-hosting.

That is a lie. But it makes it a hell of a lot easier. Oh, it also has image editor. That's right. I decided that was

editor. That's right. I decided that was a good idea. I've been trying to replace Photoshop and I have to be honest, I have not found the solution. I thought

[ __ ] was it for sure, but my decrepit old brain is too far gone. Okay, all the key commands, all the locations are too

far ingrained in my brain after using this software for 20 [ __ ] years daily. I am building my own Photoshop.

daily. I am building my own Photoshop.

It's I will do it. Okay. And it's I it's already in a pretty it's in a good enough state. Okay. I'm not going to

enough state. Okay. I'm not going to pretend that it's good, but it's better.

It's good enough. It's got in pink background removal. I know. I know Adobe

background removal. I know. I know Adobe probably already has this now, but I used to use the path tool every day.

Hey, I'm going to make a thumbnail. I

got to make the path tool all the way around. Oh, I could just click a button

around. Oh, I could just click a button now. That's cool.

now. That's cool.

Now, it might seem like there's a lot of stuff going on. And I agree, but that's what makes it all come together so nicely. I can ask it, hey, can you do

nicely. I can ask it, hey, can you do this? maybe like summarize my emails,

this? maybe like summarize my emails, give me an update on my calendar, and just uh tickle me at 7 a.m. every

Monday. It will do it. If I wanted to blob like a fish, it blobs like a fish.

Oh, it has themes as well. Oh, now I got you.

The point is, Odysius is yours, and I want it to feel like yours, too. And I'm

releasing it because I want you to help me keep building it. The war on big tech has just begun. We will no longer be abused. This project will never cost any

abused. This project will never cost any money. That's my return. Okay. But you

money. That's my return. Okay. But you

have to make meaningful changes, not just comma, doctors. Okay. It also works on mobile, which was hell to make feel good. But it's actually pretty good

good. But it's actually pretty good actually. I just want it to be good

actually. I just want it to be good because I'm using it personally myself and now I'm sharing it with you. There

is no Windows or Mac port. Someone else

is going to have to do that. Okay. Thank

you. Bye.

It's me. I'm at the airport. There are a lot of things to think about when you're traveling. Fun fact, one time I forgot

traveling. Fun fact, one time I forgot to bring Bernie's bag to the airport.

There's just a lot of things to think about. If you have a trip coming up, you

about. If you have a trip coming up, you can prepare today with SY. Sy is an eim service, electronic SIM. You don't need to enter and put in a new SIM card. You

don't need to rent a Wi-Fi. That's for

old people. And even the people that buy the eim when you land, like come on.

You're not going to want to do that. Set

it up today. It takes 5 minutes. You

land and you have internet before anyone else. As soon as I land, questions

else. As soon as I land, questions appears above me. Connect to internet.

All already solved with sailing. It's

one of those services that is so amazing. I'm so proud to be a sponsor. I

amazing. I'm so proud to be a sponsor. I

actually meet you guys all the time here in Japan and you're like, I'm using s.

I'm like, good. And then you're like, it's really good. And I'm like, good. I

told you. Cuz if you use my code PewDiePie on checkout, you get a discount. Just look at that money. Go

discount. Just look at that money. Go

down. Pay less. You're welcome. Now SY

has a VIP level. You can sail extra hard with fast track built in airport lounge access and advanced security. I myself

have SY set up for my next trip. Can you

say the same? Link description. Thank

you Sailor for sponsoring this
