But all that power has consequences. If you want your AI personal
assistant to manage your inbox, then you need to give it access to
your email—and all the sensitive information contained there. If you
want it to make purchases on your behalf, you need to give it your
credit card info. And if you want it to do tasks on your computer,
such as writing code, it needs some access to your local files.

There are a few ways this can go wrong.
