Am I the only person that sees "AI" and "screen capture" and thinks no fucking way? I switched to Linux specifically to get away from data collection, why on earth would anyone want to opt into it?

The app has a local only mode. That's just your computer chip/gpu running a language model locally. It works even if all outgoing connections are blocked, as far as I can tell. What's the threat you're worried about in that scenario?
Fair enough, I didn't see that part. I'm still not interested but that seems like a far more reasonable option.
