THE SIGNAL
Personal AI agents just became hardware agnostic.
The old assumption was that running a serious agent with memory, tools, and chat integrations meant owning a Mac mini or paying for cloud compute.
That assumption is dead.
The same agent architecture that needs 1GB+ RAM can now run in under 10MB.
The same system that took minutes to start now boots in under a second. And the hardware requirement dropped from $400 to $10.
This is not an optimization. It is a category shift.
