100 sats \ 8 replies \ @Scoresby OP 1 Sep \ parent \ on: OpenAI employees review your chats and may refer to law enforcement AI
Just general purpose research and analysis assistance, but I don't like the idea that what I'm doing now (say researching anti-money laundering laws and coinjoins or ecash legality) being later used to get me in trouble when the standards change.

Maybe use ppq.ai (low volume) or venice.ai (higher volume) instead?

I used to use Venice (free version) but I found the results weren't as good as Gemini or Chat. But I probably should have given the paid Venice version a chance before going to paid version of one of the popular llms.

It used to be that you could pay for venice pro with sats - not sure if that's still the case.
ppq makes you pay per query and is anon and incentivizes LN, so you can basically use gpt-5 there anon, paying per query.

When you say ppq.ai (low volume) do you mean you should only use a small volume of queries? And is that so that the source LLM can't aggregate?
If so, how does venice.ai not have the same issue?

Good question.
Venice is an inference provider, so they run open source models for you. Chat is a monthly/annual subscription. Their API is pay-per-token and involves tons of shitcoinery.
PPQ is a router and token reseller where you pay per token on both chat and API. If have a low volume of tokens (i.e. you don't use it much) this can be, despite their price markup, cheaper than paying for a subscription. If however you use it a lot, it won't be cost-effective.

Ah, I see, so you're not talking about privacy here, just cost.
One of the reasons I like ppq.ai is that you can switch easily between LLMs.

Yes, privacy is a procedure - neither does KYC of any kind so it's easy to be anon on there.
I don't mind ppq, works as advertised. It's expensive though; there's room for competition there.
