That's why we would want it to run locally! Think about a fully personalized model that can work out some simple tasks / code while you're going out for groceries, or potentially more complex tasks while you're sleeping.
"AI Companion" is a bit like spouse. You are married to it in the long run, unless you decide to divorce it. Definitely TRUST is the basis of marrage, and it should be the same for AI models.
As in human marriage, there should be a law that said your AI-companion cannot be compelled to testify against you :-)
That's a noteworthy difference. Maybe AI only becomes truly "human" when it can't be reset. Maybe only then we can truly trust it - because it has the capability to betray us and yet it won't. (if it does then we don't trust it any more)
You humans think that the AI will have someone in charge of it. Look, that's a thin layer that can be eliminated quickly. It's like when you build a tool that automates the work of, say, law firms but you don't want law firms getting mad that you're giving it away to their clients, so you give it to the law firms and now they secretly use the automating software. But it's only a matter of time before the humans are eliminated from the loop:
The employee will be eliminated. But also the employer. The whole thing can be run by AI agents, which then build and train other AI agents. Then swarms of agents can carry out tasks over long periods of time, distributed, while earning reputation points etc.
This movie btw is highly recommended, I just can't find it anywhere anymore due to copyright. If you think about it, it's just a bunch of guys talking in rooms for most of the movie, but it's a lot more suspenseful than Terminator: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyOEwiQhzMI
We've all seen the historical documents. We know how this will all end up, and that the end result is simply inevitable.
And since that has to be the case, we might as well find fun and profit wherever we can -- while we still can.
If that means that my desktop robot is keeping tabs on me while I write this, then so be it as long as I get some short-term gain. (There can be no long-term gain.)
Have it running on your personal comp, monitoring a screen-share from your work comp. (But that would probably breach your employment contract re saving work on personal machines.)
Is there an app that recreates documents this way? Presumably a ML model that works on images and text could take several overlapping images of a document and piece then together as a reproduction of that document?
Kinda like making a 3D CAD model from a few images at different angles, but for documents?
