Integrating AI with Retro Hardware: A Commodore 64 LLM Module
In this presentation, we aim to showcase a module that bridges the gap between the past and the future of computing. Our focus is a fully functional cartridge designed for the Commodore 64, equipped with a Large Language Model (LLM) trained on custom datasets derived from a collection of 400 books about the Commodore 64 from the 1980s. This module interfaces with the Commodore 64 as seamlessly as any hardware from the era, operating without the need for cloud connectivity and drawing power from original sources.
Presented at Security Fest 2025.
