How would it affect my confidence in Proton products? It can't really get any lower. And LLM use is certainly not going to make it higher.In fact it seems a good fit. The Trump/fascist supporting Proton and the Trump/fascist supporting LLM companies.

]@Retreival9096 I briefly played with Proton's Lumo too, and it's complete garbage, as expected. Spewed confidently wrong answers, the usual LLM bullshit.
I'm really fucking tired. I'd already migrated email to them a while ago from Google, which was a chore. Now I guess I'm going to have to do it again, to someone else. Someone else who will probably turn around and embrace LLM fuckery or some other fascist pivot.
And please don't come back at me with "host your own email". There's a limit to the cognitive load I want to merely exist in this digital hellscape. I'm almost to the point of saying fuck it and unplugging.

I currently use Proton for VPNs. I won’t be renewing.
The one thing you need from a VPN is trustability. The one thing you don’t get from AI code is something you can 100% trust. -

]@Retreival9096 mixing cryptography and LLMs sounds like a bad idea, damn. Even if you keep it to stuff that doesn't cross the boundary, it can still push a lot against it I bet
... Though I remember Proton overall being a bit murky as a company, in terms of political stance by CEO, and such? Not entirely sure but yeah.

]@Retreival9096 I think you'll find that all actual software developers who have tried using LLMs as aid the last ~6 months agree that they are quite useful.
The people who claim differently are either 1) not actual developers or 2) haven't checked if their gut feelings agree with reality.
That said, I would most definitely not have an LLM write me a cryptographic library, but I'm also very certain Proton aren't either.

What's the context? It seems you are refering to some post I can't see and I curiousMy communication style is poor. This is a new message I started, because a lot of people rely on Proton for a variety of identity protection products: VPN, secure email & calendar, etc.
And, in my opinion, their decision to use AI for coding makes their products more buggy and thus less secure.
As others have pointed out, there are other reasons not to trust Proton, including their CEO's politics.
