Giving themselves and deepseek a tick for "opens source code to the public" seems rather disingenuous. Think what you want about Deepseek, you can download their models and run them fully locally. Doesn't seem to be possible with whatever model Proton is using here.

If that tick is there because other Proton projects publish source code, that's a bit silly.

Sooo... Are they going to say which local model they're using? Because they keep touting privacy without talking about the actual AI, why would I use it instead of https://duck.ai/ ?

[X] Doubt

Do we trust any AI to return accurate results?

Ok, sometimes they do.

I mean, come on. Tried asking something very, very basic instead of humorous prompting and keep getting the same wrong answer because like all AI it has to return something instead of "I don't know." Hell, in this case it should be able to just say they are not known because that is the lore.

screen shot of lumo chat with the question "what are the names of the two missing primarchs from the IInd and XIth Legions warhammer 40k?" answered with "The two missing Primarchs from the IInd and XIth Legions in Warhammer 40k are: Fulgrim, the Primarch of the IInd Legion (Emperor's Children)  Jaghatai Khan, the Primarch of the XIth Legion (White Scars)"

Emperor's Children are the IIIrd, White Scars are the Vth Legion.

The IInd and XIth legions are the lost legions that have been erased from history, and this has been the same factual data since the 80s!
