What are your thoughts on #privacy and #itsecurity regarding the #LocalLLMs you use? They seem to be an alternative to ChatGPT, MS Copilot etc. which basically are creepy privacy black boxes. How can you be sure that local LLMs do not A) “phone home” or B) create a profile on you, C) that their analysis is restricted to the scope of your terminal? As far as I can see #ollama and #lmstudio do not provide privacy statements.

  • Thanks.

    I feel it would be constructive if people who downvoted the OP (I am not them) told them why. As then the OP can learn what this community expects and people who stumble across comments being downvoted, we can clearly see why and learn more from it.
