A machine that cannot be abused is unlikely to be useful for anything else. In this case, almost every time I work with LLMs I need to use the clipboard to transfer data.



There is already a well known way of using your clipboard (C-c, C-v), what is so special about LLMs that makes this unusable?


That involves at least three steps - select the element in question, highlight all the text (which may not always be as simple as pressing Ctrl-A), then press Ctrl-V.

A click to copy button is one convenient step.

LLMs are no more special than sites like GitHub and many others, which all provide this feature.


There are ways to do this which do not involve giving any random website full reign over your clipboard.
