Live dashboards with AI

Live dashboards make a real difference for business owners and management, and AI has made them very easy to build.

Instead of waiting for a weekly report, you see your KPIs as they happen.

I set mine up with what I already had: my website, my home network, and a CCTV camera, with live status, and alerts when something breaks.

In a company, the same setup could track SLA compliance, open tickets, branch connectivity and backups.

Ran on Hermes + DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. Total run time: 45 mins.

Been testing Hermes with different models like Xiaomi MiMo and DeepSeek, and this side of AI is much more interesting and makes you start to grasp what AI is actually capable of. Agents, APIs, models, tool use, automation.

IT professionals should be constantly working on their AI knowledge and skills to keep pace with how quickly the field is changing.
