September 2026
The way I think about running an agentic AI on my Mac is simple. I would never let an unknown person use my Mac. Not even for a minute, not even with me watching them. Let alone letting them use it nonstop, without my watching them. I’d be uncomfortable letting even a trusted friend use my Mac, logged into my user account. So why would I let an AI robot, no matter the source? It doesn’t even get to the point of my considering Meta as Muse’s creator. I wasn’t tempted an iota to try OpenClaw, and I’m not tempted to try Muse on my Mac. On a Mac, maybe. But not my Mac.
That's how I feel about it. Claude has pushed me a couple of times to give it access to my Mac.
No, thank you.
The most comfortable I am, is letting it access some files and folders under the conditions I specify. This will be too much.
And even with this, I have doubts.
