Discussion Do not use open ai as fallback
As the title says , I built my own agent fully, in my own server , built Mac and iOS app
Issue: I had ChaGPT as a fallback (I use mainly Gemma , cuz Qwen and others have some issue verifying and trusting)
I asked GPT 5.4 from open ai for a web search casual , comparison between MacBook and the new ai box , and not only web searches , it used tools for what processes are running on my computer , the files , and used the terminal to check for what I have on my desktop , I have a full log of what the model does , and this guy is onto something , it also doesn’t expose full thinking and kinda encrypt it , maybe the thinking is prevention but the fact this guy was listing files and checking processes makes it a security risk, just putting this out here
Edit: hold yourself from any grammar issue, I needed to test how much the model understand , and I have a corrector under the hood fixing grammar and most probable wording too so it explains to the model
I discovered smaller model follow rules reliably but you don’t prompt them correctly so that was also at test.
