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.
I didn’t upvote but I bet I understand people who did, as this comment does NOT address OP concern. They just add yet another alternative to verify without explaining how to actually do so, i.e. they make the problem worst rather than help, IMHO.
