My main concern is not even mentioned in this article and there are hardly any comments here addressing it: Privacy / allowing 3rd parties to read and potentially train on your proprietary source code.

I've used LLMs to crank out code for tedious things (like generating C-APIs and calling into poorly documented libraries) but I'm not letting them touch my code until I can run it 100% locally offline. Would love to use the agentic stuff but from what I've heard it's still too slow to run on a high end workstation with a single 4080.

Or have things got better lately, and crucially is there good VisualStudio integration for running local agents / LLMs?

Do you store code on GitHub? If so, how is GH's guarantee to not use your code different from Cursor's (with privacy mode enabled)?

>>julvo+Dr1
No I definitely don't use GitHub. Everything is entirely in-house.

But even if I did, there's a much more solid foundation of trust there, whereas these AI companies have been very shady with their 'better to ask for forgiveness, than permission' attitudes of late.

Fair enough. In that case small models like devstral [1] are probably your best bet
