  • The chat space is problematic.

    • There are a lot of apps that don’t encrypt at all (e.g. Google chat, discord, etc)
    • There are apps that encrypt but they are subject to jurisdictions that can or may in the future force backdoors (e.g., Chinese apps, possibly telegram, possibly US apps in the future)
    • There are apps that encrypt, are in countries that are privacy focused but are not for free (e.g., threema)

    This contributes to a fragmentation that makes WhatsApp the app that-you-must-have

    Sure it is supposedly encrypted but I would not bet my money that is without back doors


  • I hate that nowadays AI == LLM/chatbot.

    I love the AI classifiers that keep me safe from spam or that help me categorise pictures. I love the AI based translators that allow me to write in virtually any language almost like a real speaker.

    What I hate is these super advanced stocastic parrots that manage to pass the Turing test and, so, people assume they think.

    I am pretty sure that they asked specifically about LLM/chatbots the percentage of people not caring would be even higher
