The idea is pretty simple: have an assistant running 24/7 that can handle some of the boring administrative tasks I would otherwise have to remember to do myself. The problem is that an AI agent with shell access and the ability to execute arbitrary code isn’t something I’d be particularly comfortable running alongside my personal files, banking credentials or other services.
