Very cool! There's a few personal projects like this I'd love to try a SOTA agentic AI like Claude for but I'm terrified to give it any access to my machine.
Stuff like the ISO just reinforces that terror. How did it find the iso? did it do google searches? What if instead of archive.org it found totallySketchWarez.com and installed a virus? what if it found a torrent and set that up and got you in trouble with an ISP?
it's tenacity is also a double edged sword what if it starts to try to modify the OS instead of random DLLs to make things right?
Always seems so risky to let these things loose while at the same time they lose a lot of utility if you have to hold their hand for every web call or decision.
