@Blaze Mistral is fine but I haven’t found a match for Perplexity.ai as of now. Its research, reasoning and accurate citation capabilties are simply superb. Perplexity is a Meta-AI that generates prompts that force the AI’s it works with to be more precise. It can be configured to use various other AIs, but Mistral is not among them.
@orize Another Euroepan one I just found about: Wero. Already with some European banks, more to come. Phase-in at local dealers to be expected this year.
@orize The European alternative would be SEPA instant transfer, Klarna, or the German “EC card” system (which I heard have started becoming available for online use, though not those of my bank). But thank you for briging this to my attention. I think I will cancel my American Express card immediately. I won’t miss that one. As to going credit card free, that will be a bit harder.
@UndergroundGoblin @unsettlinglymoist Isn’t it one of the reasons for switching away from US BigTech to escape from AI generated influence?
