Hi Kadiz, welcome to the community! Glad to have you with us. With respect towards you, I’m trying to be really objective and rational and I just can’t seem to see how this makes sense…
You said it’s concerning that AI is potentially coming to Anytype but the quoted sentence (and your whole comment) doesn’t tell me why you think having AI is contradictory to Anytype’s branding.
I know that it being “local” is not your concern as to why Anytype, ‘which brands itself with “trust”, “autonomy”, “security”, and privacy’ shouldn’t onboard AI. Unless it is please let me know.
I don’t see how OpenAI hiring Kenyan workers has anything to do with Anytype. You don’t even know if Anytype is planning to use ChatGPT yet). Even if they are, how does this have anything to do with Anytype?
The roads I drive on were built by people getting paid way less than me for working way harder than me under the hot sun while I drive in my air conditioned car, with that logic I shouldn’t use roads then.
Again, not sure how this has anything to do with Anytype. Also, “stealing” is not the right word here but that would go into a whole different discussion.
With this logic, we shouldn’t be using our computers because it needs to be charged and that electricity is coming from somewhere that is negative to the environment (unless you are self sustaining via wind turbine, solar panels etc.). Anytype shouldn’t exist because it’s using servers under AWS and those servers are a net negative directly to the environment…
Just want to make sure that we know AI right now is only in its amoeba stage, right? It’s like someone complaining about the “world wide web” in 1994. Let’s be real, AI is inevitable. Not wanting to use AI down the line will be like those uncontacted tribes that rejecting contact with civilization. Do you think 30 years from now you still wouldn’t be using AI?
Would love to get some examples of this. All the enshitification that I can think of are done by human decision…
To wrap it up, I don’t see how any of the backup points you made has got to do with convincing us that local AI/LLM would go against Anytype’s privacy…
I have the same notion with @Shampra and I voiced it out half a year ago. AI is incredibly useful for a PKM, especially for a PKM that I’ll be using for the rest of my life. Imagine all the information you’ve gathered in 40 years (2065), and you trying to remember something you wrote into your Anytype second brain 30 years ago in 2035, are you gonna spend 30 minutes looking for it or are you gonna get AI to pull it up for you and help you remember the context as to why it was written down 30 years ago? I willing to bet it’s the latter.
But as of right now, AI/LLM shouldn’t be the focus in my opinion, especially not when there are so many other features that Anytype has yet to implement that are much more needed. This has been my stance since last year and I still stand by that.
