Last week, Slack’s users realized that under the company’s terms of service,
their private data could be used to train artificial-intelligence models.

This came as a shock: chat messages convey sensitive company data, and LLMs

That’s great, can you set up a server for me?
Just ask an AI how to do it. Soon you’ll probably be able to ask one to do it for you.
Why? so it can feed me wrong answers and run me around in circles while I ask it questions?
now when you get the prompt ‘Accept all connections to Botnet(.)ru’ , press yes

There, fixed your racist comment :)
.SU (soviet union domains) are well known for the overrepresentation of cyber criminals.
Would it be racist to use .su as an example domain too?

Yes. Any country TLD means nothing. Racist behaviour is mental dysfunction allowed in places like Reddit, not here. Blame the things that need to be blamed.
Sure, it takes me about 5 minutes plus some waiting for the system to initialise.
If you pay for the hosting fee I’ll do it for free since it’s so quick and simple.
It’s literally pasting one command to install a full GUI, open source web admin panel with one-click installations of apps.
You want Matrix Synapse, Nextcloud Talk, XMPP or mail-based chatting? I can also recommend Jitsi for teleconferences.
I’ve fallen for this trick too many times…
Check out LM Studio. Very easy to get started and runs on both CPU and GPU.
Zulip is great, they offer free hosting for open source projects and research labs.
Zulip is a chat app…?
Yeah https://zulip.com/ they’re actually pretty awesome
Yeah I know, how are they going to help me self-host?
You could pay them for their support. I know it sounds a bit cheeky, but the zulip folks are really great and the product is not one of the open core solutions where they strip out features based on your plan, like some others do.
I can? How?
You say that like it’s a bad thing for companies to monetize their work.

If you’re serious about it, yeah I can.
I assume you’re trying to imply in your comment that people are not going to use it if it’s not easy.
It’s unfortunate, but sometimes, having nice things can be a little hard. If people want to use the easiest thing under the sun, then they’ll just have to accept the downsides that come with it. Sometimes, that means private companies will use private photos of people’s underage children in AI training models that can generate deepfake pornography. What can you do? Convenience comes at a cost sometimes.
I’m not saying I agree with this of course, but that’s just how things are in the world where all rules must follow the dollar.
For free? No.
Gonna cost you time, money, or data.
