Tell HN: PSA/reminder AI Apps have access to your clipboard

2 points by ddxv 3 hours ago

I had a situation occur where Cursor demonstrated it already knew what was in my clipboard. A pleasant feature, but jarring because I hadn't started working yet and didn't expect it to know what was in my clipboard.

I think a year ago I would have 'expected' this but have grown pretty complacent using AI apps and lately have started becoming more shocked realizing how much they are collecting constantly.
