I’ve tought about TTS options. I could probably make some kind of more private workaround with it, by using DDG chat AI, or whatever else that’s not the official ChatGPT app

What are you even using GPT for? Asking information, offering options, comparisons

You say it dictates what you think, do you have difficulty parsing your own thoughts?

Kind of Supposedly ADHD, anxiety, and other things Dictate via microphone helps in many ways for me

I don’t think it’s a good tool for introspection

I don’t really use it for introspection, always for information

Good thinking, thanks, I do still read tho, no worries (might not seem like it in my writing, english is not my first language). I’ve never been a writer, I’m usually into forms of expression that are more direct to me, like drawing and music

Thanks In a way I did still change a lot of habits. This on the other does feel like giving up a huge fight and making my brain think that I actually don’t care about privacy/Foss at all, I’m usually not a “all or nothing” type of person, but it’s a bit hard to wrap my head around this time

In the end you’re right, but as I was answering in another post, AI seems so big for the future and potentially invasive, that if I start giving this up, not having a google account or whatever, to me, would seem like nothing in comparison, if I’m trying to maintain a relative degree of privacy. So I feel like it’s not giving up a bit of my infos, but probably all of it, specially when using an app. Not sure if I’m making sense. But it’s like “ok, I won’t give this man my info”. “This other man, on the other hand, can live in my house and listen to everything”

I have been suggested to self host in the past. But as I’m concerned for ecology, and let’s be a honest, a bit of my money too, I’ve thought that self hosting, meaning having the PC always on, was not a good thing. So I left the dilemma in this state, not knowing how “bad” this would actually be in terms of electric consumption, and if it was worth the trade with privacy or not.

I did, but that’s not really the subject. I’m not taking GPT as a therapist by the way, I may have been misunderstood because english is not my first language. But I’m not sharing mental health things with it.

In any case, I think the problem I’m feeling can be real for many people that are not in mental state anyway. But I totally see why you would say that, thanks.

I get that, but the problem with this kind of AI is, I feel like I’m sacrificing a lot, not a little.

People not talking about Startmail or Disroot. Not good options?

Huge beginner here, but privacytools.io says Mailbox is encrypted? Is it the “end to end” part? How did you find out they’re not? https://www.privacytools.io/privacy-email

What’s the alternative on Android tho? (not saying there isn’t one, just that I don’t know it if it exists)
