Announcing: Thaura - Your Ethical ChatGPT Alternative

https://updates.techforpalestine.org/announcing-thaura-your-ethical-chatgpt-alternative/

You can use Thaura for everyday tasks like writing emails, doing homework, and researching online. It remembers your conversations, helps you create documents and code, and even searches the web for you. And it works seamlessly with your existing tools through full OpenAI SDK compatibility.

But what really makes Thaura different is what it doesn't do:

  • It doesn't collect your data or spy on you
  • It doesn't have political bias
  • It doesn't water down the truth on sensitive topics

everything has political bias

I went into this article hopeful, but then realized there's not single mention of how their model is TRAINED. Like... what the hell do they think the primary ethical concern of LLMs IS?!

I think it's GLM 4.5 Air

Oh it doesn't have a political bias? That's miraculous in a world in which various forms of scientific consensus don't meet that bar

  • If it connects to a server someone is spying on you.
  • Everything has bias, claiming to not have bias just means you are unaware of what biases exist.
  • Uncensored is good!

It doesn't acknowledge the ethical concerns with LLMs. Assuming it's GLM 4.5 Air, which has been mentioned in this thread and matches the description they give, it does in fact address some of these concerns.

But this sort of shady front-end for someone else's work; marketing itself with this sort of corporate bullshit; and being oblivious to the issues it's claiming to solve is the exact reason so many people despise anything even remotely related to technology.

You have to create an account to use it. So on the privacy point of view, it doesn't compete with Lumo or Duck AI.
