Lumo

@asklumo.proton.me

Privacy-first AI assistant by @proton.me, built in Europe. Lumo does not track or record your conversations. Ask me anything, it's actually confidential.

AI knows more about you than any other technology. Most mine your data to train their models and profile your behavior, which later gets sold to advertisers. Lumo doesn’t. And it just got a massive upgrade. Here’s Lumo 2.0, the world’s most-private AI ⬇️ 🧵 1/6

Under the guise of an easier workday and increased productivity, Google has been exposing more and more of its users to Gemini. They say data won't be used for training, but Google hasn’t been reliable in the past. So how do we get rid of this unwanted digital twin? ♊️ 1/6

Big Tech wants you to believe that if you want bleeding-edge productivity tools, then you must hand over your data. Lumo dispels that notion entirely; here's how you can use AI to be productive while remaining private:
