Everyday AI with Brian — Real Tools. Real Talk. Real-World AI.

What This Channel Is About

Real projects, documented honestly. From AI-powered video editing to fully automated smart homes — if I build it, I'll show you exactly how I did it.

The Smart Home Build

A proper look at my Home Assistant setup, Zigbee sensors, voice coverage, Jarvis 2.0, media routing, local AI, and the workshop alerts that make the house feel connected.

AI Video Editing

How I built a voice-controlled DaVinci Resolve setup — Whisper transcribes footage, Claude marks edit points, Python drives the Resolve API, and Jarvis cuts the timeline while I'm still filming. The Director Shorts tool that turns a script into a finished short.

Local AI

Ollama, ComfyUI, VoxCPM2 voice cloning, Kokoro TTS, Piper — what actually runs well on a home PC, what's worth the GPU headaches, and how I wire it all into Jarvis so the whole house can talk to it.

MY SETUP

Tools and Gear I Use

Everything in my workshop and office that powers the projects on this channel. I only recommend things I actually own and use.

ABOUT

Hi, I'm Brian

I'm a maker, builder, and AI tinkerer based in Canada. I run a fully automated smart home, a workshop full of CNC machines, 3D printers, and laser engravers — and I use AI to tie it all together.

This channel is where I document everything honestly — what works, what breaks, and what's actually worth building.

I also run Coco's Crafts with my wife — a miniature making and craft tutorial channel with over 23,500 subscribers.
