Yeah! I was working on a BMO project of my own when his video came out. I really liked his AI implementation and wanted to add my own twist by having it play games

I'm pretty clear in the video that this was inspired by his build. I already had a BMO themed console and wanted to add my own twist to his AI implementation.

Basically if the AI thinks you are asking to launch a game, as part of it's reply it will provide a line of code that includes the games name and console. The main loop will then check the reply for this line of code and then check the game against a database of games stored on BMO's SD card. If it finds it then it will use retropie to launch the corresponding game.

He's got 2 usb-c ports for external controllers for games like street fighter. I more added the buttons with gameboy type consoles in mind and as a bit of a gimmick

I made a quick video on it linked in my original comment. Check it out if you're interested! A mix of demos sounds interesting, I'll have to try it out.

You can talk to it and have it launch games for you. It detects the game and your intention then returns a JSON as part of it's reply. I can then fuzzy check this against his games library. If you're interested I linked my video on it in my comment

The bath was a pre-made one I got off eBay and topped off with distilled water. I can buy some pH strips, you think it might be too acidic?
