So a serious AI product would have to have my data (contexts, conversations) in a "secure enclave". If backed up, it needs to be encrypted.
I want a context and history that, over time, essentially knows everything about me.
It's one of the things that has been rather fascinating about Claude & Co.— he'll come back with things like, "Since you are already familiar with the ESP32…" or, "You already have a heat press from your work with dye sublimation, that will work nicely to set the inks when you screen print t-shirts…"
(Shades of "Diamond Age"… I imagine it helping me recall things when I am in my old age, notice patterns in my life I might want to break free from, etc.)

Amazon's Alexa does this kind of thing a lot based on purchase history. It reeks of upsell there to me. Instead of answering a question directly, it'll add something like "You've purchased ___ so this product should be a good fit for you" like it's trying to "close" the sale.
Phrases like you want are equal parts trying to sell a proposed solution and inventory/capability information in my opinion. Maybe my time in sales long ago made me sensitive to persuasive intent, but it always makes me suspicious.
The YouTuber polymatt recently did something like what you want using local models and a small robot for UI. I find that more compelling than putting more of my data in a public cloud in any form. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxjuEHTKXMw" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxjuEHTKXMw
