Among the many weird things about this are that we don't treat it as a three-alarm fire that Google, Apple, and Firefox will already copy local models to your computer without asking

Like, you already don't have control over whether "local AI" is happening on your machines. Why is that acceptable

So now Anthropic is saying they're going to nonconsensually install a local LLM agent on your computer without you being in an explicit customer-supplier with them. I understand *why* people treat that as worse than Apple nonconsensually doing the same thing. But I don't agree with it

Anyway joke's on Anthropic, they can't hack an "AI" into my computer, because I don't have any hard drive space. All the space got used up completely by Visual Studio Code update files and duplicate versions of Unity
