Looking for people interested in advancing TheBrain
Hey everyone!
I've been working on TheBrain, an experimental AI project fully written in C89, with a particular focus on building a small AI system from scratch while keeping it suitable for older Windows systems and low-level environments.
The project currently combines:
- 🧠 A small decoder-only Transformer
- 🔤 A custom tokenizer and training pipeline
- 🏋️ Training and inference implemented directly in C89
- 🖥️ Native Win32 implementation
- 📦 PE analysis
- 🦠 Experimental malware-classification and anomaly-detection techniques
- ⚡ CPU-focused optimizations designed with older hardware in mind
The long-term idea is to see how far an AI project written entirely in C89 can be pushed while keeping it lightweight and potentially usable on systems such as Windows 2000.
I'm posting this because I'd like to find someone who becomes interested in the project and wants to take it further.
I'm not specifically looking for people to simply "help me" with the project. If you find the concept interesting and want to experiment with it, improve something, try a different approach, or take the project in an interesting direction, that's exactly what I'm looking for.
Some possible areas to explore include:
- Improving the Transformer architecture
- Experimenting with better datasets and training methods
- Improving inference performance
- Making the AI more capable while keeping it lightweight
- Improving the PE analysis and malware-detection experiments
- Exploring better classification or anomaly-detection approaches
- Optimizing it for older CPUs and Windows 2000
- Or simply experimenting with ideas that could advance the project
The source is open, so you're also free to fork TheBrain and experiment with your own version if you find the idea interesting.

I'm mainly interested in seeing whether someone else finds the idea interesting enough to take it further in their own way.
