The message is that by running an arbitrary app on a machine, LLMs can act as an agent on your behalf, as though it were actually you.

Compare this to a web browser were there are huge security restrictions on what components can talk to what (e.g. forbidding cross-origin, http <=> https requests, and so forth).

Overall it's a bit of a nothing burger, and the level of effort required to identify it as such was a tad disappointing.
