AI security / Technical draft

Local AI still needs explicit boundaries.

The question

What changes when a model runs locally? The execution location answers one question about information handling. It does not, by itself, define the authority of the surrounding application.

A useful approach

Separate model execution from document retrieval and tool access. Use only suitable test information, give integrations narrowly defined permissions and make outputs reviewable before they lead to consequential actions.

What to evaluate

Consider what information can enter prompts and logs, what integrations can act on, and how unexpected output is handled. This note sets out architectural questions for exploration; it does not assert benchmark results or disclose infrastructure.
