Remember folks: if you want to do AI, the only way to do it safely is with a model running locally. Half of the problem with AI isn't the technology itself, but what the techno-fascist US Big Data monopolies use it for: to exploit you.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

There's no safe way to "do 'AI'", including locally which means incomparable power and sorrowful dataset difference, and lack of direct source referencing you might at least try prompting/querying a vendor LLM for.
What I meant is that you can use AI for what it's good for by querying a model running on a AI-capable machine that isn't connected to the internet. I didn't say what the AI says is trustworthy: the onus is on you to take whatever it spews out with a gigantic salt crystal.
But AI is good at some stuff, and for the few things I use it for, I don't need to share my queries with fucking Google or OpenAI.
My shared Claude chats were not being quietly published on Google. I have no Claude chats, shared or otherwise.
Didn't that exact thing happen with open ai last year?
...risk is that people use chatbots to think through work, health, legal, or personal matters without realizing that a shared link can behave like ordinary public web content.
This isn’t unique to Claude. We’ve previously seen Grok chats show up in Google search results, and Meta AI conversations can also become public by design. We have also written about the share option in ChatGPT that was swiftly removed after users unintentionally made thousands of conversations searchable.
