actually the admin of dbzero seems to be part of a project creating free open-source and crowdsourced distributed gen a.i. models and applications. im not to familiar with the details but links are in their profile on mastodon.
Google steals your data and I’m sure wants to enslave us, too. Microsoft would love that. DDG probably doesn’t but it’s search kinda sucks and gives shitty AI generated web pages as results most of the time. Probably because it just uses Bing.
I use ChatGPT to answer questions directly instead of wading through searches. It’s pretty good at it. Like, “What’s the word for the thing that does the thing with this other thing”. And it’s like “thingamajig”. Yup, that’s it. Perfect. It’s what I wanted.
The company isn’t profitable, and every question costs them money. They certainly aren’t profiting off of my dumb questions.
Any good alternatives?
Never tried, but I heard you can use deepseek locally with ollama.

I think you wanted “don’t use anything”?
