Can ChatGPT run osx-cpu-temp on my computer?

Do I need to install osx-cpu-temp first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install osx-cpu-temp for you.
Is it safe?
A new computer starts read-only: running commands is turned on per computer, and BCD reaches only the folders you allow.
