AI Your Data
summary
Claim: AI needs root access to personal streams to be useful, so the future is local agents running on devices rather than vendors aggregating data. Implements concrete building blocks: SHA-256 hashes, ed25519 keys, content-addressed storage, blockchains/Merkle DAGs with vector clocks and CRDTs. Uses libp2p-like middleware and NAT traversal with a goal of an easy install (npm install p2p). Prototypes and demos exist but UX and reliable self‑hosting remain unsolved; expects momentum by 2026.
