so, about a month ago i stumbled upon the duckduckgo ai chat feature and wrote an article about how private their APIs are, and a few weeks after, a CLI client.
the thing is in a pretty mature stage now (its not like there is a lot of work to be done there tbh)
its not super private, but it is “private enough”. the only thing duckduckgo has is your IP, which is usually not much unless you are on a residential connection with a dedicated IP
Just a PSA to anyone who looks here: with DDG, ChatGPT is not your only option. You can choose to use Claude instead, if you wish.
And recently Llama3 and Mixtral!
I actually didn’t know that! Thanks!
This is about LLMs, not Linux.
What’s privacy-focused ChatGPT? Is it like diet butter?
Hint: if it doesn’t run on your machine, it’s collecting monetizable data.
Thank you this looks interesting!

Can we keep LLM BS in “AI”-specific subs, please?
I don’t get why you’re getting downvoted. You’re right. The topic is too focused on LLMs, and is not generally applicable, or exclusive, to Linux.
