BrainDrive V.1 & Roadmap Discussion

Hi Guys,

Below is a video of a discussion Dave J. and I had today regarding what we envision for V.1 of BrainDrive and what we believe the milestones are that we need to work towards on the way to that.

Here is an AI powered summary of our discussion on V.1.
Here is a link to our development roadmap (BrainDrive/ROADMAP.md at main · BrainDriveAI/BrainDrive · GitHub)

Hi All,

We’ve made great progress on the roadmap discussed in the post that started this thread. However, our aspirations have expanded since then as to what we want to accomplish with our V.1 version.

Below is a recording of my and @DJJones discussion from earlier this week where we went over our new vision for our V.1 roadmap and beyond. I have also put together a draft of that roadmap which you can see at the link below:

This is still a work in progress and will post back here once we have finalized.

Comments, ideas, concerns etc welcome as always.

Thanks!

Hi All,

Dave J and I went over the first draft of BrainDrive’s Roadmap and are aligned so this is what we will be working off of going forward and these are the 5 phases:

  1. Foundation
  2. Dev Beta
  3. Dev Release
  4. V.1 Release
  5. Community Acceleration.

Yoou can see a big picture overview of what each phase entails in the BrainDrive Roadmap, and you can see the granular to do items that we have already identified and will be working off of by phase in the BrainDrive Project Board.

It’s really cool to see everything coming together and we welcome your feedback, ideas and contributions as we continue our mission of building a superior user-owned alternative to Big Tech AI systems.

Onwards and upwards!

Hi All,

After careful consideration Dave J and I have decided to shift our near term focus back to the privacy focused user who wants to run a local AI system.

As you can see above we had recently refocused the Roadmap around developers. And empowering builders to build on top of BraindDrive is still at the heart of our mission for building a superior alternative to Big Tech AI systems.

What we have realized in the last couple of weeks with that focus however, is that we are actually a lot closer than we thought to having something that we are really excited about for the average person who wants to run their own AI system.

So we’ve reshuffled the Roadmap accordingly. We’re currently in the final stages of finishing phase 1, the foundation with the last items on the list being the one click installers Dave J hopes to finish this week.

Then we will move into phase 2 (Own) which is all about polishing the local, persona, and Rag based functionality that we have been working on for the last couple of months. That will be followed by Phase 3 (Build) Phase 4 (Benefit/Earn) and then Phase 5 community acceleration.

I think this lines up nicely with how we plan to build a superior user-owned AI system to Big Tech, by making it easy to own, build, and benefit from your own AI system.

Both the Roadmap and the github project tracker have been updated accordingly, and you can see our full discussion on this below.
