Build Your Own AI Character from Scratch (Project Riko Setup Tutorial)
Added 2025-06-28 00:00:19 +0000 UTC💡 Ever wanted to create your own AI character—one that talks, thinks, and has a real personality? In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through setting up the foundation using my open-source GitHub project: project_riko.
🔧 This is the exact codebase I use to power Riko, my cheeky anime co-host with memory, voice, and personality. By the end of this video, you'll have your own AI character up and running, ready to talk and be customized.
✅ What We’ll Cover:
How to clone and run the project_riko repo
How the core modules work: memory, voice, personality loop
Tips for customizing your AI’s behavior and tone
🧠 You don’t need to be an AI expert to follow along—just a basic understanding of Python is enough.
👾 Ideal for:
Creators who want an AI VTuber or digital sidekick
Devs building custom AI NPCs, roleplay bots, or companions
Fans of Riko who want to fork and remix their own version
