@jxnlco wow!
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 he'll soon get addicted to Codex slop and lose that bald farm. 4o was better.
@ChatGPTapp #keep4o 🙂
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 给我的启发： 利用GPT和Codex给孩子整一个homelab
AI加速学习前沿 Lab提供实践
@jxnlco @tomiyasu16 what a legend!
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 @grok what's his github ?
@reyjudge @ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 多年以后你会发现这个homelab回报率是大学的10倍不止。
**pizzeriagorlami** Hiroki Tomiyasu (tomiyasu16) GitHub is **http://github.com/tomiyasu0428**. He uses it for GitHub Pages + Actions (e.g. satellite data automation) and shares various AI side projects there.
His specific farm tools (ESP32 greenhouse LINE bot, etc.) aren't public repos yet — he documents everything step-by-step on **http://note.com/tomiyasu16** instead. He also references open-source stuff like AgOpenGPS.
Classic non-engineer builder vibe.
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 codex farming in hokkaido is the most wholesome use case
@tomiyasu16 @jxnlco 友よ、君がAIを使って農場を作るのを手伝うために、30万日本円を集めたんだ。やばいよね！
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 he did not learn to code. he learned to build.
those are not the same thing anymore.
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 i still babysit Codex on npm scripts, Hiroki-san has it near greenhouse vents
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 What a real life example that turns AI into true production power! Especially it is combined with the traditional industry.
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 how is he doing it?
@tomiyasu16 @jxnlco hey bro, take a look at @bankrbot @igoryuzo you can hit him up, he is the dev and he will help you! the community loved your project and we raising funds for you.
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 So awesome seeing real world applications to AI, and how useful it can be
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 That's pretty cool. Love seeing people use AI for practical stuff like farming instead of just making memes.
@ChatGPTapp @tomiyasu16 This is the kind of AI story that feels properly grounded.
