I cannot bring myself to trust unreviewed software enough to install it on my own machine with arbitrary permissions. I understand the push for AI-generated websites, because the code running in my browser's sandbox is gonna have very limited permissions to do anything evil, but desktop apps are a completely different story
- thomaspaulmann 7mo agoI feel you! We thought about this and all apps will have a permission model. So you can limit it to specific file disk locations, domains for network requests, and so on.
- s__s 7mo agoCan you explain how the permission model works?
- ftchd 7mo agoI don't see how this solves the issue, something bad can happen regardless of permission granularity, no? Definitely a good initiative though. I like how coding harnesses do it, showing you the exact command that would run, or running it in a sandbox first.
