Since I canceled Claude (US boycott) I'm really enjoying https://chat.mistral.ai/ It might be a few months behind quality wise, but it is really fast, which is great for quick searches and brainstorming. It even has a canvas feature now.

This really gives me hope! Great french AI Tool!

I’d assume you should be a lot better off with european GDPR law.

The EU's GDPR emphasizes strong individual privacy rights and strict data protection laws, ensuring users have control over their data. In contrast, China's approach often prioritizes state interests, with laws that can require companies to share data with the government, raising concerns about data misuse.

The EU is also developing comprehensive AI regulations, like the AI Act, to address ethical considerations and promote transparency. Meanwhile, China focuses on rapid AI development for economic growth, sometimes overlooking ethical concerns.

That's a fantastically coherent response so I appreciate you taking your time to summarise.

You know what it's like, you kind of feel you know the answer without facts supporting it so I appreciate you filling the gaps
