- Concerns about AI agents having unfettered access to personal computers due to lax permissions.
- Modern desktop OS lack strong security boundaries, making sensitive data vulnerable to AI access.
- Difficulty in selectively restricting AI access to sensitive areas like password managers or API keys.
- Cloud environments and VMs offer a more secure and reproducible alternative for running AI agents.
- Browsers present a potential solution with isolated environments, though current implementations are flawed.
- Future integration of AI into browsers could allow selective access control to websites.
