Welcome back, Superhuman

It’s a good day for privacy buffs who love ChatGPT but want to keep their data safe, as privacy browser company Brave releases an alternative chatbot that doesn’t store your data.

And after Apple’s big push into AI-focused chips earlier this week, Bloomberg reports that the company is now looking to integrate AI across its products.

AI AT WORK

Brave’s new Leo AI chatbot could be a more private and secure alternative to ChatGPT

For those of us who like keeping our private stuff private, Brave has become a household favorite in recent years. The company - known primarily for its browser - just announced a new AI chatbot called Leo.

Here’s what sets it apart:

• Conversations are not recorded and stored

• Data from conversations is not used to train AI models

• Does not require login information for it to be used

While the chatbot offers all the usual features that other chatbots offer - like text generation and translation - it remains to be seen if Leo’s output can match that of ChatGPT, Bard, and other leading offerings.

The chatbot is available to users who have the latest version of Brave’s browser. Currently only available on desktop, Leo will be rolled out to mobile users in the future as well. A premium version is also available for $15 per month.
