alt Hacker NewsThis is pretty cool!
What's holding me back from AI repos and agents isn't running it locally though. Its the lack of granular control. I'm not even sure what I want. I certainly don't want to approve every request, but the idea of large amounts of personal data being accessible, unchecked, to an AI is concerning.
I think perhaps an agent that focuses just on security, that learns about your personal preferences, is what might be needed.

is your idea of granular control (roughly) a group of agents in separate containers writing back to their own designated store each sufficient, or more control than that?
Thanks for taking a look!
Agreed regarding the privacy/security hesitations. Running the models locally with ollama is an option, but of course there's the hardware requirements and limitations of open source models to contend with. ultimately it's a balance between privacy and ease of use, and I'm not sure that there's a good one-size-fits-all for that balance.
