You don't have to send your data to ChatGPT
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm excited to launch this community because I keep running into the same misconception everywhere I go: people think using AI means sending all their data to OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Anthropic etc.
Here's what most people don't realize: You can download and run powerful AI models directly on your own computer. Your documents, emails, personal data - none of it ever leaves your machine.
The wake-up call that started this?
A few months ago, I wanted to automate my calendar management using AI. But the thought of sending my entire schedule, meeting notes, and personal appointments to some cloud service? Nope.
Giving some AI system access to my Google Calendar with the ability to create and remove stuff?! ABSOLUTELY not! So instead I figured out how to run everything locally on my own computer. I Built an automation workflow that manages my daily schedule, processes my emails, and helps with task planning, all while keeping complete control over my data. 🙌
The result? I get all the AI benefits without the privacy trade-offs 😎
