Brave responds to Bing and ChatGPT with a new “anonymous and secure” AI chatbot
const_void, Brave is a really shady company. I don’t trust them any more than the others.
Caligvla, 
Yeah, “anonymous” and “secure” aren’t words I associate with Brave…

burliman, Why is that?
Fades, Chromium based in addition to Brave pushing things with no way to opt out
Snowpix, 
Plus pushing Crypto nonsense, shady changes to links, and donating to anti-LGBT causes.
niisyth, Never had any trust on em due to the former reasons but I didn’t even know about the last part. Glad I always side eyed them with suspicion.
EvolvedTurtle, Wait fr Damn the crypto was weird But anti-LQBT is hella shit
Now I feel shit for even recommending the browser in the past
PerogiBoi, 
Ecosia
noodlejetski, the very reason Brave exists is Brendan Eich, its founder, being fired from Mozilla for donating to anti-LGBT groups.

noodlejetski, bbhh
Franzia, Adding this to the pile: CEO wants brave to be an ad platform. He doesnt want to challenge power beyond gaining it for himself.
AbidanYre, They never really had any to begin with.
jmd_akbar, Yea… That’s a “No” from me dawg…
I have a very bad feeling it will start to harvest your local data…
ZeroCool, Brave
lol pass
PerogiBoi, “Anonymous and secure”
Lmao.
BetaDoggo_, So they’re using Claude for the premium tier? How do they know that none of that data is being collected by Anthropic? They have no control over it.
remer, They said anonymous, not that they would record everything
ModernRisk, 
What else to use on iPhone/IOS alternatives browser to avoid (block) YouTube ads?
Currently using Brave browser as it is one of the few that block ads and has the highly quality video (1080P-2160P).
But with all the mess that’s going on, I want to get away from it.
kzhe, Yattee if you’re willing to switch to a Piped account (requires some setup), I think there’s jailbreaking stuff, Firefox Focus
ModernRisk, Thanks, I’ll look into it
Eggyhead, I’m just using Safari with the Vinegar extension.
mojo, Just a reminder that services charging a monthly fee do not automatically mean they’re private. Anyways, just use venus chub ai instead 🤫
uranibaba, It you want images, there is also civitai.
EvolvedTurtle, Idk brave has alot of trust me bro vibes
And that’s kind of off putting And I used to be hard on the brave train
But now I’m with the more recent trend of “Chrome -> Brave -> Firefox” pipeline
Pika, why is chrome first if you don’t mind me asking, I am curious, I have always concidered chrome to be a less private brave and Firefox to be at the top of the list in terms of privacy, unless the list was going fron least to greatest
shotgun_crab, I think it’s like a train, they went from Chrome to Brave to Firefox
Pika, ooo ok!
kzhe, No, they first were a Chrome user then turned to Brave before finding firefox
kzhe, And the homophobia
not_a_bot_i_swear, I wonder when they get sued by Feedly, as their AI assistant is also called Leo…
Whayle, 
Pushing "machine learning" as "beneficial AI" appears to be a ploy to build profiles of everyone using all the data that can possibly be gathered up about them. The claims will be for better ads and better experiences, but the reality will be something quite different.
Roundcat, 
All they need now is to promise VR and self driving cars, and they'll have a hype-tech bingo.
bionicjoey,
applejacks, 
is it as locked down and censored as Bing and CGPT are?
Engywuck, Hopefully not. Waiting for the update.
DeathWearsANecktie, Bing image creator literally flagged “Ronald McDonald” as an unsafe image prompt lmao
registrert, 
Well Ronald is a clown after all. John Wayne Gacy was just the tip of the iceberg you know, haven’t you heard about the term “clown world” before?
Wake up sheeple, all our leaders are clowns with human makeup!
applejacks, I have Photoshop with the generative AI options.
It’s almost impossible to get it to work with anything peach to brown shaded, because it (presumably) thinks I’m doing something NSFW.
