Hi everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations on free (or freemium) AI assistants that meet these criteria:

✅ Strong capabilities – Can handle complex questions and research. ✅ Privacy-respecting – Doesn't train on user data, preferably E2E encrypted. ✅ Ethical stance – Not complicit in oppression or human rights violations (Palestine, sudan, uygur, etc). ✅ Not on BDS list – Companies that aren't supporting or profiting from occupation.

Which AI tools have you found that respect both privacy AND human rights?

I'd really appreciate honest recommendations and experiences. Trying to find tools that align with my values without sacrificing functionality.

Thanks in advance! 🤝

Just because no one has said it yet here are all the options:

  • run it yourself locally, but it's as vulnerable as you are

If you open up to paying there are a few possible options, but prob still aren't perfect.

There is an NI alternative that passes all these criteria. It's called your brain.
