It baffles me that we've spent decades building great abstractions to isolate processes with containers and VM's, and we've mostly thrown it out the window with all these AI tools like Cursor, Antigravity, and Claude Code -- at least in their default configurations.
Exfiltrating other people's code is the entire reason why "agentic AI" even exists as a business.
It's this decade's version of "they trust me, dumb fucks".
Plus arbitrary layers of government censorship, plus arbitrary layers of corporate censorship.
Plus anything that is not just pure "generating code" now adds a permanent external dependency that can change or go down at any time.
I sure hope people are just using cloud models in hopes they are improving open source models tangentially? Thats what is happening right?
