girvo: I don’t get it. It says nothing leaves your computer, but it’s sending things to OpenRouter, not running models locally. Perhaps I am dumb (and I always feel dumb after reading an AI generated README for yet another AI tool Tbf)
spiderfarmer: I have used Cowork so much over the last couple of months and I have no reason to switch. But I’ll definitely give this a try.
the_real_cher: So it's like open claw but you have to pay for it?
_ache_: > Yes. OpenYak is local-first. Your conversations and files are stored only on your machine. When using cloud models, only API calls to LLM providers leave your computer.So local-first and still upload files to cloud models if you configure it.
SilverElfin: What does “owns your filesystem” mean? That sounds dangerous.
h05sz487b: Its your filesystem which is now, also, owned.
SomaticPirate: [delayed]
rakag: What's the difference between this and OpenWork which has existed for a while?
raincole: > run locally via OllamaAre you saying this part is a lie?
teleforce: I've got the strong feeling that AI model and agent requires different operating system (OS) paradigm that's data centric rather than file-system for more efficient, effective and trustworthy operations.For working example, please check TabulaROSA (Tabular Operating System Architecture) proposed by the MIT team. Instead of normal OS system call, it utilizes data based operations with D4M that can work mathematically via associative array with structured or non-structered data [1],[2].With the advent of new CPU acceleration with fully homomorphic encryption as demonstrated by Intel, the AI model and agent can even analyze the data without even decrypting them [3],[4].[1] TabulaROSA: Tabular Operating System Architecture for Massively Parallel Heterogeneous Compute Engineshttps://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/126114[2] D4M: Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model:https://d4m.mit.edu/[3] Intel Demos Chip to Compute with Encrypted Data (121 comments):https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47322815[4] Intel Demos Chip to Compute With Encrypted Data Fully homomorphic encryption chip speeds operations 5,000-fold:https://spectrum.ieee.org/fhe-intel
jstummbillig: It sends to OpenRouter if you chose to use OpenRouter. Can use Ollama. Idk how to get more local than that? Any tool will be non-local, when you do something explicitly non-local.
rbren: I still strongly believe every developer should be vibecoding their own cowork/openclaw/devinHere are the prompts I use for my AI environment, though it's changed a bunch since the last snapshothttps://github.com/rbren/personal-ai-devbox
Sathwickp: A simpler version of openclaw?
coldtrait: Why did the OP make a comment about the project like he was someone else?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47560380#47560381When it's clear he is one of the major contributors to the project?https://github.com/openyak/desktop/graphs/contributors
