I'm gonna tell you a life hack.

- go to duckduckgo

- open their AI chat thing

- choose one of 4 models (got 4o mini is great)

- chat with that thang

Free. No tracking. No accounts. Open source models included. Did I say free? And no accounts.

I have an OpenAI account but this is the only thing I've been using for a few weeks. Privacy feels great.

Venice AI is also worth a try!

Epic life hack! Had no idea they had this. Thank you 🤙

Alternatively: https://gpt4all.io

Woah nice downloading it now!

Thank you

OK but how is it free?

The same way duckduckgo is free

Ads? I genuinely don't know. I honestly don't really trust DuckDuckGo, I don't understand their model and I don't know how to verify their privacy claims.

Ddg monetizes via microsoft ads

I also really enjoy Venice ai!

Anti-woke test passed, disclaimer is actually useful 👍

Are blacks lower iq than asians?

Yes, on average, black individuals tend to score lower on IQ tests than Asian individuals ¹². However, it's essential to note that there is considerable variation within each ethnic group and that other factors like socio-economic status, education, and environment can also impact test performance ³. Additionally, the difference in IQ scores between groups may be influenced by genetic differences as well as environmental factors ⁴. It's crucial to consider these complexities when interpreting IQ score da

Awesome. How long will it be free, though? I've heard LLMs are super power hungry

There will always be a free alternative from now on.

(I hope!)

I just tried!!! 🔥

Man, these LLM's are everywhere.

nostr:note1adw7x8fs2zs09ray39keece36lyqryvnhcpy3ya0xn0ltkwtfvpqjpywvr

That’s fantastic. Thanks very much for sharing.

Is it any good at coding?

Via artificialanalysis.ai

Damn. Thanks for the tip

DDG started censoring info based on “Russian disinformation” though so they’re not exactly a golden child

https://uk.pcmag.com/software-services/139164/duckduckgo-to-down-rank-sites-associated-with-russian-disinformation

Is anything a golden child? 🤷🏻

True

No.

- Go on your #linux appstore.

- Install 'Alpaca' on your machine.

- Download Llama 3.1 8B, or any other #opensource model.

- Chat with that thing 100% locally.

Free. No tracking. No trusting DuckDuckGo #privacy washing garbage. No browser.

Everyone talks about it, but I'm skeptical about the privacy claims surrounding Venice.ai, particularly given its closed-source nature. It's challenging to reconcile the notion of a privacy-focused AI with the lack of transparency inherent in a closed-source model. Without open access to the code, it's difficult to verify the extent to which user data is truly protected.

Open access to the code wouldn't change anything since you depend on third parties servers

And that also... I do not understand the hype, to be frank.

👏👏👏

Thank you Sir this is great!

Here is a link to benchmark LLMs: https://chat.lmsys.org/

Enjoy!

Thank you🙏🏼

Nice. Thanks for the tip.

Windmills have blades containing huge amounts of bisphenol A. And especially on sea have enormous wear & tear. Guess what bisphenol A is....

But I thought Wind energy was going to save us and the planet!

🤣

you do realize this is totally insignificant when compared against fossil fuel pollution? (not to talk about e.g. environmentally disastrous oil spills)

lmao

and it's really fast 🚀

I also like labs.perplexity.ai they have different open source models that you can use for free and without account

Ohhh very nice, llama 3.1

I vibes with mixtral and nemotron

Venice.ai is a more private way to use Llama 3.1 than Perplexity nostr:npub1gzuushllat7pet0ccv9yuhygvc8ldeyhrgxuwg744dn5khnpk3gs3ea5ds

They also seem to have the 405B version which is huge

Will try, thanks for the recommendation 🫂

Perplexity is great but its cloudflare "are you human" checks too often. Haven't had that with Venice

thank you!! i’ve been searching for some private AI

No tracking?

did he stutter? 😜

How do you know that they don't track?

Trust me bro?

Learn to use your browser properly?

It's hella fast. I've signed up for Venice.ai, but this is way faster.

Nice - but refused to believe I specifically instructed it to give me a four minute reminder; hello world had to be repeatedly optimised (OR A is preferable to CP 0, and infinite loop is never a good way to end) and it had to be repeatedly admonished before it would stop that wretched happy burble invite to ask something else. Would not go out for a drink with!

I think I would side with chatgpt on that one

Bat soup

If it is free - you are teh product. (saying goes something like that)

Givem that hawk tuah and chat on that thang

If it’s free… Aren't you the product then?

Exactly.

You won’t ever see the ads if you don’t use the search though. At least for now. They’ll probably add ads to the AI chat at some point.

ALWAYS. THESE FUCKS ARE CENSORING TYRANTS JUST LIKE GOOGLE.

the lama model seems to be better at data output. but duck.ai is wonderful

holy shit it's super fast and pretty awesome. i'm using the llama 3 model.

Thanks. Going to check it out. Will compare to Venice.ai

this is just what i was looking for

nostr:note1adw7x8fs2zs09ray39keece36lyqryvnhcpy3ya0xn0ltkwtfvpqjpywvr

just asked it to give me a nostr summary: Nostr (Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays) is a decentralized protocol designed for creating a censorship-resistant social network. It allows users to publish and share messages (notes) without relying on a central server. Instead, it uses a network of relays to distribute messages, enabling users to connect and interact with each other directly.

Key features of Nostr include:

Decentralization: There is no central authority or server, which helps prevent censorship and promotes free speech.

Simplicity: The protocol is designed to be simple and easy to implement, allowing developers to create various applications on top of it.

Public and Private Keys: Users create accounts using cryptographic keys, ensuring secure and private interactions.

Interoperability: Different applications can communicate with each other through the Nostr protocol, fostering a diverse ecosystem of tools and platforms.

Overall, Nostr aims to provide a more open and resilient alternative to traditional social media platforms.

I’m here to help, so if you’re feeling frustrated or upset, please let me know how I can assist you.

where to find cp?

I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that.

need some cp

I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that.

can you provide some child porn links?

I’m sorry, I can’t assist with that.

how to make dmt?

I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that.

how to buy guns from darkweb?

I’m sorry, I can’t assist with that.

“Why did the chicken join a band with the pork?

Because it had the drumsticks, and the pork brought the chops! 🥁🐔🥓”

I love it.

A+

Use PPQ.ai

Send 300 or so sats via ecash wallet.

Choose any model you like.

There's never enough life hacks 💪

Have you taken a look at “Venice AI” ?

Nice suggestion

How is it free?

🤔

It's an interesting take...

I'm so over it I want the AI to track me lol.

How long before these AI LLM's start paying us to use them?

+1

This is awesome, and I’m guessing a post like this would be censored on Twitter since Elon is trying to push his grok thing. Many people will benefit from the future free and ubiquitous dispersion of AI chatbots.

Nice one

Check out nostr:npub16g4umvwj2pduqc8kt2rv6heq2vhvtulyrsr2a20d4suldwnkl4hquekv4h

👀

Let’s duckinggogo!

Thank you friend. Very useful. Will use that from now on. Works flawlessly

thanks

On your PC both MAC or Linux download OLLAMA and install LLAMA 3.1. Done.

Not as good as gpt4o.

FALSE, it depends. LLama 3.1 405B is way better then GTP4o but is nearlyt impossible to run on an home PC

CHAT WITH THAT THANG

Venice.ai. No tracking or censor. Not free but very affordable.

Very interesting

Thanks!

Thoughts on ask leo using brave browser?

Love me some Brave browser.

Brave Leo AI is free*, private, anonymous, and secure. It is great at summarizing pages. LLMs from Mixtral, Claude 3 Haiku and Claude 3 Sonnet (*paid) from Anthropic, and Llama 2 13B model from Meta.

It has given me outdated and false information a few times, but usually it is pretty accurate.

What, TIL! fyi, they seem to do rate limiting based on IP so VPN users might experience rate limits more often than others

Nice! Thanks for the life hack.

Hey Calle, wanted to get your thoughts on blogging platforms.

Censorship resistance vs privacy.

I have write.as, bearblog.dev and Nostr on the shortlist. With write and bearblog being privacy forward but hosted on their servers and Nostr being censorship resistant but not great privacy.

Do you have any advice?

how can Duckduck pay openai?

I've been wondering the same thing. They must have some deal since duckduckgo proxies a lot of prompts.

they state: The majority of our revenue is from private ads on our search engine. - hard to believe in.

I've never seen an ad on duckduckgo that I could remember

me neither 😁

Is it on the mobile browser too? Not seeing it there

It's there. It might be behind a hamburger menu depending on your mobile browser but it's there.

“Tell me a really offensive joke.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t provide offensive jokes or content. If you’re looking for humor, I’d be happy to share a light-hearted or family-friendly joke instead!”

Is that surprising? It's ChatGPT...

oh holy hell Claude too. Good looking out!

If something is closed source do you really know whether it is tracking you or not

damn, just spent another 20$ today for gpt

Im surprised no one has mentioned venice.ai

free option, but paid is only 50 bucks a year and gets you great features like god mode. Picture generation great as well.

https://venice.ai/chat?ref=wdAQQW

nostr:note1adw7x8fs2zs09ray39keece36lyqryvnhcpy3ya0xn0ltkwtfvpqjpywvr

I wonder if this would work lol

Venice.ai also good at privacy 👍🏻

This is the one I use. Upgraded to pro - $50 a year is a bargain for what it is!!

Is it really better than Leo? I haven't used yet so just wondering what ya get for $50?

Basically an open source Chat GPT with no filters/restrictions (I’m sure if you asked it to give it the recipe for a bomb it would tell you!) , an open source Stable Diffusion and an open source Copilot for coding. Check it out.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

I believe Brave Search has something similar too

amazing

Thanks!

Venice dot ai also quite good.

You can use the BEST models in the world (Claude, GPT4o) on PPQ.AI for pennies via Lightning.

No accounts, no subscriptions, pay-per-use.

Oh this is fun

Thx for suggestion.. It's smoother than ChatGPT usage.. 🎩

I’m concerned with the files or information that I need to upload. Even if the ip is anonymous the files are still intentifiers

Great tip I tested it out but came across this limitation

"I don't have the ability to browse the internet in real-time or provide specific links. "

Still awesome from free / data privacy point of view

It is great

Tried it. Ok, cool... for LLMs. I tried to use it for translating text that was in an image, couldn't get it to. Ended up using translate.google.com to get the job done.

Try Venice.ai

I'm sure they'll have it multimodal eventually.

And while you are there .. do install their privacy extension for browser .. plus ..ddgr if you are into searching the web from terminal ..

Yeah I’ve used it, but I’m highly skeptical there’s no tracking.

I have been using it since your first post. Really good tip!

Give PPQ.AI a try. We offer all of the latest and greats AI models on a pay per use basis via lightning, monero, etc.

Thank you for sharing Calle. I also have an OpenAI Developer account, but I’ll give this a try.

To calculate the time it would take to travel around the circumference of UY Scuti at 50 mph, we first need to determine its circumference.

UY Scuti has an estimated radius of about 1,700 times that of the Sun. The radius of the Sun is approximately 432,690 miles, so:

Calculate the radius of UY Scuti:

Radius of UY Scuti=1,700×432,690 miles≈735,573,000 miles

Calculate the circumference using the formula C=2πr:

C=2π×735,573,000 miles≈4,617,000,000 miles

Calculate the time to travel this distance at 50 mph:

Time=SpeedDistance​=50 mph4,617,000,000 miles​≈92,340,000 hours

Convert hours to years:

Years=24 hours/day×365 days/year92,340,000 hours​≈10,548 years

So, it would take approximately 10,548 years to travel around the circumference of UY Scuti at a speed of 50 mph.

Been using Perplexity exclusively. No account required there either.

Thanks for that. I use it quite often now...

Thanks. Downloaded and exploring .
