Privacy and Local Processing
Haptique OS is local-first, and the AI experience should follow the same principle wherever supported.
What local AI means
Section titled “What local AI means”Local AI means the model or AI capability runs on hardware you control, or the control decision is executed by your local Haptique OS instance. This reduces dependency on cloud services and keeps routine home context closer to the home.
What to document clearly
Section titled “What to document clearly”Every AI feature should be clear about:
- Whether it runs locally or uses an online service.
- What context is used, such as room names, device names, or scene data.
- Whether conversation history is stored.
- Whether actions require confirmation.
- How to disable AI features.
User control
Section titled “User control”Users should be able to decide where AI is used. Recommended controls include enabling or disabling AI chat, limiting device access, requiring confirmations, and reviewing AI-created scenes before saving.
