I burned through $245 in 2 days trying to compensate. Not great.

So I rebuilt my entire AI model stack from scratch, and honestly the new se=
tup is way more powerful than before.

In my latest video I show you exactly what I'm running:


=F0=9F=A7=A0 Brain =E2=80=94 Claude API with prompt caching (90% cheaper th=
an OAuth)


=F0=9F=92=AA Muscle =E2=80=94 ChatGPT flat rate for all the heavy lifting


=E2=9A=99=EF=B8=8F Grunt work =E2=80=94 OpenRouter + Gemini Flash for the r=
epetitive stuff
