We believe the benefits of AI are too great to miss, and the risks too serious to ignore. Whether we like it or not, AI is here to stay, but the current iterations of AI reflect a failure to learn from the past. That’s why we built Lumo — a private AI assistant that only works for you, not the other way around. With no logs kept and every chat encrypted, Lumo keeps your conversations confidential and your data fully under your control — never shared, sold, or stolen.
You can start using Lumo today for free, even if you don’t have a Proton Account. Just go to lumo.proton.me and type in a query.
We still don’t have Proton Drive on Linux, and they think we give a flying fuck about some god damn AI chatbot slop machine?
WTF is proton doing? There’s still open issues with their basic products?
Got to get on the slop train before it crashes
I cancelled my years old account a few days ago when I started to receive the damned “try our Xyz” popup bullshit on their website.
The bugs that are never fixed, the “new products” coming in no one asked, and not having a proper Linux support for the drive…
Can we talk about the marvelous idea that is the bridge? Gotta reinstall the certificate once a month or so.
I had enough of a subpar email service. If I want encrypted email, I’ll do it myself thank you.
Instead of two steps forward two steps back. Proton likes to take one step forward, punch it self in the face. Then roll a d20 on what to do next.
Proton is company-personified of the engineer who loves working on new features, but hates fixing bugs. That’s how you get insane tech debt and unhappy customers.
Proton keeps doing the wrong things. Ugh.
They think everybody still loves them. That ship has sailed years ago…
How does chat encryption matter when it needs to be processed on their servers? It’s not like messaging where they just act as a middleman by sending a message from point A to point B, they’re actually having to process a query.
I didn’t see mention of it, but maybe they could use homomorphic encryption?
I don’t understand it too, e2e encryption but the AI has to process the data somehow :L ???
EDIT: If they refer to encryption as just encryption on message transport that’s just HTTPs, to verify that they are not saving your data, the backend source code needs to be available to analyze it.
HTTPS is end-to-end encryption when you talk to the server directly
“private” so andy can give any conversation he wishes right to the white house and his bestie.
Why does Proton come off as a vapid American technology company that leverages privacy themed keywords in their PR copytext?
I say this as someone who has been using their email services for many years (I am a subscriber too).
I also don’t necessarily oppose a privacy focused cloud LLM from Proton. It’s more the tone of the blogpost, the misleading service comparison table under “Compare Lumo with other leading AI assistants” and where their priorities lie.
Which models are they using?
If you ask the model itself, it says Mistral Large
Why is this down voted?
It is good to know that proton does this.
Because people are mostly incapable of using the button as anything other than “I like this” or “I don’t like this”.
