No problem. I contacted them at support@protonme.zendesk.com, and they answered very quickly(a couple of hours):

"Hello,

Thank you for reaching out.

Please note that we typically add the open-source code repository a few weeks after releasing a product, so it should be available soon.
You can keep an eye on it here: proton.me/community/open-source

Thank you for your patience.

If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to let us know.

Kind regards,

Nikola L.

#TechBros be solving lots of problems that don't exist.

I'm looking from a #disabled perspective. One #AI product being marketed to #blind folks is a #ChatBot that can answer questions about things you point your #phone's #camera at. I asked it to ID some pills in a blister pack, and I got an incorrect answer despite the information being printed /right there/. The #developer said to double-check "important" things.

WTAF?

Unfit for purpose.

Data Science Collective · RAG in Action: Build your Own Local PDF Chatbot as a BeginnerBy Sarah Lea

A California federal judge has ruled that three #US #authors suing #Anthropic for #copyrightinfringement can represent writers nationwide in a #classaction lawsuit, whose #books the #AI startup allegedly pirated to train its #Claude #chatbot.
Judge Alsup said Anthropic may have illegally downloaded as many as 7 million books from the pirate websites, which could make it liable for billions of dollars in damages if the authors' case is successful.

'The National Center on Sexual Exploitation, an anti-pornography and anti-sexual exploitation nonprofit... called on #xAI to remove the Ani #chatbot, saying in a statement that the character was “childlike” and promoted high-risk sexual behavior.

“Not only does this pornified character perpetuate sexual objectification of #girls and #women, it breeds sexual entitlement by creating female characters who cater to users’ sexual demands”
