There are actually a few closed apps that do it, some claim to make your phone discoverable as a Bluetooth HID and others via a server/client combo. But I don’t really want to have an internet enabled device being able to track all my screen interactions and control another internet enabled device without some assurance that there’s nothing nefarious going on behind the scenes.
Thanks, yes, I came across it and it looks very good but the target device is an IPad so I didn’t consider it an option (well, I found no closed or open options I liked, really).
I understand you better now. Yes that’s certainly possible, plausible even. But it would seem useful for someone who wants to boost the credibility of their (hypothetical) keylogger app with exotic permissions to have a way to independently be recommended as a good open source option by two leading models in mainstream use.
Strictly speaking, it doesn’t know anything. But regardless of the merits of LLMs, the AI box is the top result on the biggest search engine in the world by default, and what I’m wondering is whether this is an example of intentional manipulation of the search results to give people who don’t know better the false impression that apps are open source.

For me this is the year of building a media and music library of my own, legal or not. I’ve already cancelled my music streaming subscription, now it all just comes down to finding new, joyful ways to still explore and listen to music
Yeah, as ridiculous as the record labels are – their reaction is exactly what one would expect after such a high profile move.
Then again, people with nefarious purposes are usually highly motivated.
Yes, I find this credible. At the same time, FOSS and Linux seems to be all the rage now, with big tech’s ties to the Trump regime etc. Even though it’s been nearly two decades ago since I first installed Linux (in the late 00’s I even had an awkward “FOSS as an ethical alternative to piracy” phase), I am not in the tech savy crowd that’s been mainlining this stuff for life – rather I identify more with the growing number of tech illiterate dummies that think “FOSS = good” because Pewdiepie said so or copy/pastes sudo commands that replaces half my boot drive with North Korean crypto malware.
