    Are there any models trained on ethically sourced material? Even though this wouldn’t necessarily solve the environmental impact, there are still many times when a traditional search engine just doesn’t cut it. All else equal and without a self hosted workflow, I prefer tools that at least pretend to be privacy friendly (Duck.ai, AI Horde), and I had not heard of Proton’s Lumo prior to this post, so I do appreciate the suggestion even if it doesn’t meet all of our criteria.

      LLMs are jot a trusted source of information, period. There is no use case that if I could not fond an answer on a search engine, I would trust the hallucinations from an LLM

        i use a local llm for usage as a thesaurus, ask a question in regular language about what word can be used for a certain definition. this has been the only real usage ive found.
