It could even be in everything, as long as I would have full control of it. When it runs on my computer, under my conditions and managed by me and me alone. Like how my computer used to work before Microsoft dumped all their Microsoft accounts and telemetry and adware and other horrors on us.

An AI assistant can be mightily useful the more it knows about you. The problem is, I don't want Microsoft, Google, Meta or even Apple to know all these things as well. And this is where the problem start. The data these assistants collect will be a goldmine. Of course "our privacy is protected". But yeah that's what these companies always say.

It will be in everything, whether you like it or not. If you're lucky, you'll be able to disable it for a significantly worse experience where most features are locked behind giving up all your personal data. More than likely you'll be denied usage to the entire product, because the whole product will be built around AI. All this AI stuff is just another means of gobbling up as much of our data as possible.

Feature gating behind data privacy permissions needs to be illegal immediately.
