    It says they give their AI their credentials to log in, do american banks not offer api access? My handwritten 50 lines python script has been sorting my money based on a budget for a while now, and I don’t have to worry about hackers getting access to my api token, as they would only be able to transfer my money internally between my own accounts.

      why the fuck can random AI agents have API access if open source software can’t? why can’t we have open source banking apps then, that don’t block being used on custom roms and desktop android emulators? why can’t our spending manager services like actualbudget connect without a shady middleman?

      such a bullshit…
