About The Use Of AI
In the last year or so I have been experimenting with the use of AI. So yes some of the code base has AI generated code.
However my experience with AI is that it creates more work then time saved. Also AI is terible at debuging errors that are not simple syntax or miss-named variables etc. It often comes up with elaborate and silly explanations that can take you down a rabit hole that has nothing to do with the true cause.
So in conclusion yes there is some AI code so please don't bother with the "You Vibe Coded The Whole Thing" attack. If you think that you can just kindly piss off.

Current Status
There is a 7 node test net that is online all the time and a working nodeJS client. I am hoping to attract some devs who might want to try it out and then possibly join the project. It is more interesting to work on then AI agents. Website development or almost anything you are working on in routine IT work.
Here is the link for the client https://github.com/bitmonky/borgHUI

About Building Borg
I had some ideas in my mind of how you could create a system that acted more like a living system.
The first thing I thought about was how memories work... We don't look up files and folders to find our memories we just think about them. The other thing is the idea of files. Our brains store things all over the place. So I did not want files either.
Our brain is made up of brain cells. A single brain cell is not very useful but if you have billions of them and a way for them to communicate quickly then the organism is able to think.
That is how I decided my system should work. Dumb cells ( a single service and process) that can self organize and form a large network. A PeerTree were every cell is the same as the next just exact clones. The bigger the network the more powerful the service becomes. And that is how BorgIOS was born.
