The larger conversation is about privacy

Ok lets have that discussion in 2026:

People will give their personal info over if it provides them with something useful

The conversation probably went over your head because you’ve used AI so much you’ve regressed into an infantile simpleton who happily bends over for corporate data collection.

As an "simpleton who happily bends over for corporate data collection" and a "paint eater" I block most ads as I don't feel they provide an improvement in my life

However AI without my personal info is less useful, I use it all day every day for everything, it helps improve my life massively, Mistral itself has privacy controls built in that won't collect or store hyper personal info unless you allow it which I have

What else would you like to discuss?

    See that's a meaningful response, even if I don't personally agree with it. Your original reply did that annoying thing where someone hyperfixates on one tiny part of the comment and ignores the actual topic being discussed.

    Imagine if I replied to your comment with just "2026? A.I. has been a thing for much longer than that." Like, yeah; but also that's not the important part lol

    In reply to your actual comment at the end: It's actually kind of a big problem with LLMs. For them to be useful, they need access to absolutely everything. This has privacy implications, and can even cause catastrophic errors like deleting the database

    Fair enough

    https://lumo.proton.me/ is available but if people find Claude/ChatGPT more useful and/or don't care so I'm not sure what there is to discuss

    It's like having a discussion about personal info and facebook, according to this site:

    https://www.demandsage.com/facebook-statistics/

    Facebook continues to be in the top 3 most used social media, with now 3.07 billion monthly active users (MAUs

    This is over 10 years after the cambridge analytica leak, it's pretty clear most people don't care
