This is my point: if you can’t afford a server powerful enough then don’t use an AI.

If you can’t afford a server but use an AI you have to accept some compromises. One of those is to be spied on. The true question isn’t to use AI but to accept to be heard, recorded, analysed, and perhaps used against you.

A start-up is a company which hopes to be bought by a bigger one. To be bought at the higher price, they need to have something a big company would like to have. Like data. Especially since those companies are cutting corners to reach the market and survive.

Some aren’t bought but it’s not the majority.

Our trademarks include Andi™, “Search for the Next Generation”™, GenAI™, “Generative AI Search”™, “Andi - Next Generation Search”™, Andi Search™, AndiSearch™ and LazyWeb™, “Deep Answers”™, “Social Search Engine™”, “Andi - Radically better search”™, and “Andi - What are you looking for?”™

Seriously?

The only private AI is self-hosted.

I wouldn’t check that high level before asking which hoster they use.

I trust Europ but not AWS, GCP, and Azure less.

People missed those are warnings. They have no imagination so they took those as advices or even manuals. In a sense, they learnt.

With this logic, any country could be reduced to its leader. The reality is less manichean.

By the state, not by the nation.

I use Shelter to enable the work profile. It permits to copy apps between standard and work profile. So it is possible to have google services (with an account set I mean) in the work profile.

Apps like for Banks can’t be copied though. But most of the others can.
