Maybe I'm going too far from the tipping point of "this is easy" when it actually isn't, but the ability to clone an open source project now, modify some part of it, and then compile it locally seems like the future. This is almost trivial to do now.
Why not do the same for the web?
Without going off on a rant about all of the user hostile bullshit that's being shoved down our throats right now, I think one inevitable outcome of AI is that users are going to need to have defensive local AI agents protecting them and fact checking data. This is the trojan horse for the big tech companies that rely on ad revenue and dark patterns to manipulate their users: if they provide the AI agents, they will be obviously inferior and not super-intelligent, just like when Google's early public image-gen model was making image of ethnically and gender diverse nazi soldiers, etc.
