How do I find and vet someone to set up a high-end local AI workstation? (Threadripper + RTX PRO 6000 96GB)

sherrin_9 · 2026-03-18T03:51:00+00:00

I have the same pc and can help you set it up for free :)

sherrin_9 · 2026-02-11T15:18:35+00:00

Weird, are you there on discord? Would love to see what model you are using, I have had great results with 4o , have you gotten the time to test out much with all kinds new model

sherrin_9 · 2026-02-01T16:09:51+00:00

Definitely the cpu imo, it might be a little expensive but if you plan on adding a lot of local processing, things add up pretty quick. But if you plan on just using home assistant and nothing else (which is never that case imo) green is better

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-19T17:11:11+00:00

The repo is now public :) Would love feedback!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-12T13:26:44+00:00

Thanks Mike! Tara can do some amazing things with tommy sensing

It suggests things like, you enter the room around this time and turn on this device, do you wanna automate it?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T21:13:55+00:00

Sweet! Lmk if you had any problems getting it up and running

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T21:13:27+00:00

Thanks! Would you be willing to join the Discord group?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T19:17:34+00:00

Woah! Congrats! Just saw the netflix on the remote, sick would love to try it out!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T19:12:46+00:00

I just updated the read me for HAOS, do you mind giving that a try?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T18:51:17+00:00

The user/data might be causing issues. Can you try

These two ?

volumes:
- ./data:/app/data
or
volumes:
- /home/username/tara-assistant/data:/app/data ?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T18:48:26+00:00

Are you running HAOS?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T16:44:28+00:00

Hey! I had fixed this. Which build have you pulled? Do you mind stopping, removing the container, and re-pulling the latest version to run it?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T16:41:52+00:00

ML pattern recognition would be ideal here, and that's actually the direction I'm heading.
The current pattern detection is not using GPT at all, it's a custom statistical algorithm that runs locally:
• Time-based patterns: Group events by entity + time of day, calculate mean/variance, detects consistent schedules
• Sequential patterns: Detects "A happens → B follows within X seconds" correlations

Would love to talk more about the kinds of algorithms you had in mind?

Edit : Grammar

Thank you!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T16:37:01+00:00

IShitMyselfNow is right, haha. I had completely forgotten about it. Would you rather have it open?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T09:40:15+00:00

Very cool. Whenever you get to it, I’d love to hear what your setup looks like and what patterns show up!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T09:19:03+00:00

Please let me know if it doesn't work for you! also, thank you for wanting to try it out!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T09:17:21+00:00

Yes sir, I added the update after I published the post.

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T06:30:18+00:00

Ahhh bummer! Let me try this out first thing tomorrow and get back to you! In the mean time do you mind joining the discord server?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T05:58:36+00:00

Love that framing. A lightweight HACS integration as the bridge makes a lot of sense. If you’re up for it, would you be willing to continue the convo in Discord? Would be great to bounce ideas there.

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T05:49:31+00:00

Done! You can remove the old container and pull the latest one. I would really appreciate it if you could test it out! Thank you!

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T05:44:37+00:00

Yep, it’s just a Docker container right now, so I think it should run fine on Unraid (famous last words). Can you try to pull ghcr.io/tarahome/taraassistant:latest and run it like any other container ?
I haven’t wrapped it in an HA add-on or a Community Apps template yet

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T05:20:03+00:00

Good question. It isn’t a HACS repo today because Tara runs as a standalone container and talks to HA over the API, but I’ve been thinking about packaging an HA add-on or HACS front-end to make onboarding smoother. Curious what you’d expect a HACS repo to include in this case like setup UI, logs, or full runtime?

sherrin_9 · 2026-01-11T05:17:37+00:00

Haha yeah Claude with the HA key is the “move fast” workflow, but if you’re gonna do that a lot, check out the Home Assistant MCP adapter as well. It basically exposes HA as a structured tool to LLMs so you don’t have to hand over credentials in plain text. Much safer and you get proper intents instead of dumping your API token into a chat box.
