As cool as it sounds to have a virtual assistant as a second brain to handle all the mundane mental load of modern life, big tech has shown us the reality of this would be mining customers for data, more intrusion of advertising, customer manipulation through propaganda, and a subscription payment model that ratchets up and holds your data hostage. Not to mention the environmental impacts.
It’s absolutely not cool and it’s a massive fucking privacy and security concern.

Let’s give these Ai agents root access to everything on your PC because people don’t want to think and plop their brains into jars.

That, and also this might just be a fake PR stunt to make the Trump administration not seem so wrong. Remember that both Elon and Trump only really care about enriching themselves and their relatives. Anything they say or do doesn’t have much substance to it. It’s all about facilitating their goals. If they feel like they need to do a 180-degree turn in order to boost their public perception, they will do that. I don’t think they have much integrity, spine, morals or ethics at all. That would just stand in the way of enrichment.
