Manfrednotfunny | on: Muse Glimmer: 30B-parameter model optimized for always-on local agent workflows
I'm waiting for the speed/quality per dollar metric to go down a little bit further and then I will def run it at home.

Its not just that you send a sentence to an API endpoint, you always send EVERYTHING to that agent as a context.

You want to analyse your spending history? You now send everything to someone.

Either no one cares but understands this implication on how easy it is to really capture you or no one really things about it.

But i'm a lot more diligent on what I send. I disabled the gemini activity feature for example because google started telling me that my stuff could be reviwed by humans.

Yeah, it does feel a bit silly with my encrypted disks, encrypted backups, unique passwords, advanced router, etc, while I send everything I do in plain text to anthropic.

Similiarly I wonder why we dont run our own email server despite the sensitive data there.

I did, it started to become too much work to run it well due to all the spam :| (even with the right signatures and configs, until you learn what a blacklisted ip is and that ips need some time of 'positive history' and what not.....)

But at least with your email, you had to trust only one company, as shitty as it is.

Separation of concerns was also easy.

Now with OpenRouter, you just might by accident, send your whole context to just everyone because OpenRouter just routes to different models and you might just switch around between some free model, the good one etc. And it is always the whole context.
