OT: I wonder if WASM is ready to fulfill the sandboxing needs expressed in this article, i.e. can we put the AI agent into a web assembly sandbox and have it function as required?




If the agent only needs the filesystem then probably. If it needs to execute code then things get flaky. The WASM/WASI/WASIX ecosystem still has gaps (notably no nodejs).

You'll probably need some kind of WebGPU bindings, but I think it sounds feasible.
