FrittFritt@mastodon.socialOct 21, 2026, 4:05 PM@littlesnitch Can I have a version without built-in AI?

@Fritt It’s not a “built-in” AI. The connection alert offers an optional “Ask AI Assistant” button that lets you request further information about a particular connection by querying an external AI service anonymously. You can use this to learn more about a connection before you decide whether to allow or deny it.
And you can disable this button completely in Settings.

@littlesnitch Thanks for the reply. And for the important disabling option.
Oct 21, 2026, 4:17 PM@littlesnitch I don't want/need an AI assistant.
How about improved support for binaries that change frequently? Or even just allowlisting everything in a given folder structure? (talking about /nix/store/* here)
TechAlienTechAlien@mstdn.socialOct 21, 2026, 4:24 PM@littlesnitch Can you turn off the ki Assistant?

@TechAlien Yes, it can be turned off completely.
And even if it’s turned on, it only acts on your explicit request – only when you click the “Ask AI Assistant” button.
