I also don't understand what principle they have behind the GDPR claim. On LinkedIn you have some control on the visibility of your profile, and most infomation can be hidden if you want to (?!) Buy when others see your profile, feels

Won't you be paying for output tokens for copilot as well? Isn't that the change announced recently? Anyway, token economics wont't make sense to users, and if it is worth it, until they aren't all subsidized.

Title is misleading. The page (unless I missed it on a skim) states that it's built in Europe. "European Alternative" has a different connotation as visible in the other comments.

If you're building agentic processes (harnesses) for business processes local models are a great way to do that, while keeping your data, and any personal data, private. If you're vibe coding a codex/claude subscription makes

In the article it states that this person had an account that would have been limited to $2000 in usage. And the system automatically upgraded them to higher spending limits when they crossed the $1000 in usage costs. They could definitely

This is the LLM integration approach I was pitching last year to some companies. Though in my case it was strictly tied to self-hosted inference. Agents at the edge of business where they can work independently, asynchronously, is an approa

It's a MoE model and the A3B stands for 3 Billion active parameters, like the recent Gemma 4. You can try to offload the experts on CPU with llama.cpp (--cpu-moe) and that should give you quite the extra context space, at a lower token

Contrast looks good for the text, but the font used has very thin lines. A thicker font would have been readable by itself. At 250% page zoom it's good enough, if you don't enable the browser built-in reader mode.

Automated decision making processing, such as banning, must be avoided under the GDPR. Those facing this issue should throw a complaint at their DPA. I'm sure Musk would love another series of fines in the EU.
