Even modern sandbox environments have access to curl and python and who's going to read EVERY permission prompt anyway? Just set it to auto which lets another AI model check for safety or even better, YOLO mode where everything is allowed.

    I don't understand people who just let the AI loose on their system and don't have any safeguards in place. At the very minimum it shouldn't have admin access and should be limited to just the project folders. Also back up the project folders to another location the AI doesn't have access to.

    Really basic digital hygiene is all that's needed, and yet there are constantly stories about idiots having their entire hard drives wiped.
