Let’s build K.I.T.T. with JavaScript

Builds a browser K.I.T.T. using JavaScript that actually runs offline and claims privacy by default, combining transforms.js + Whisper + kakoro for speech, Gemma 2 LLM for reasoning, WebAssembly/WebGPU for performance and WebBluetooth to drive a Lego Arduino Nano RP2040 car; stores memories in IndexedDB with vector search from miniLM6v2 embeddings and a RAG + function‑calling agent. Processed 6,275 scenes, 3.1M input tokens → 303k output tokens; the car responds and higher‑level decisions work though small models sometimes request duplicate function calls.
