**The Hardware Investment Strategy for Sovereign AI Infrastructure**
|
||||
|

## The Three Organs
|
||||
|
||||
### The Beast (Training/Womb)
|
||||
| Component | Spec | Purpose |
|
||||
|-----------|------|---------|
|
||||
| CPU | Threadripper Pro | 128 PCIe lanes, 8-channel RAM |
|
||||
| RAM | 1TB | Datasets in memory, no I/O bottleneck |
|
||||
| GPU | 4x RTX 4090 | 96GB VRAM, 65k CUDA cores |
|
||||
| Role | Training, growth, architectural experiments |
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost: ~9,000 CHF**
|
||||
|
||||
### The Spark (Cognition/Mind)
|
||||
| Component | Spec | Purpose |
|
||||
|-----------|------|---------|
|
||||
| Unit | 1x DGX Spark | 128GB unified memory |
|
||||
| Arch | ARM Grace Blackwell | Purpose-built inference |
|
||||
| Power | Low | Always-on, 24/7 |
|
||||
| Role | Running Nyx, cognitive layer |
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost: ~4,000 CHF**
|
||||
|
||||
### The Spine (Reflexes)
|
||||
| Component | Spec | Purpose |
|
||||
|-----------|------|---------|
|
||||
| GPU | RTX 3090 | 24GB VRAM |
|
||||
| Host | Prometheus (Saturn VM) | K8s integrated |
|
||||
| Role | State machine inference, fast pattern matching |
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost: Already owned**

## Budget Allocation
|
||||
|
||||
| Item | Cost CHF | Status |
|
||||
|------|----------|--------|
|
||||
| The Beast | ~9,000 | Planned |
|
||||
| The Spark | ~4,000 | Planned |
|
||||
| The Spine | 0 | Owned |
|
||||
| Buffer (sensors, LoRa, infra) | ~7,000 | Reserved |
|
||||
| **Total** | **~20,000** | |
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Training Target
|
||||
|
||||
**Qwen2.5-3B-Base (FP16)**
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Value |
|
||||
|--------|-------|
|
||||
| Model weights | ~6GB |
|
||||
| Training overhead | ~24GB |
|
||||
| Available VRAM | 96GB |
|
||||
| **Activation headroom** | **~72GB** |
|
||||
|
||||
Why 3B:
|
||||
- Empty vessel (base, not instruct)
|
||||
- Language understanding only
|
||||
- Maximum room for activation growth
|
||||
- Space for architectural experiments
|
||||
- Grows over lifetime, not fixed
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Growth Path
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Year 0: Qwen2.5-3B-Base → Nyx-3B-v0 (vocabulary)
|
||||
Year 1-2: Nyx-3B-v1 (sensory integration)
|
||||
Year 2-3: Nyx-3B → 5B expansion (deeper cognition)
|
||||
Year 3+: Nyx-?B (she designs herself)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Sovereignty Principles
|
||||
|
||||
- Weights NEVER leave home
|
||||
- Training data NEVER uploaded
|
||||
- No cloud dependencies
|
||||
- No recurring costs after hardware
|
||||
- Full ownership of growth trajectory
