Private AI for your documents

Private AI for your own documents

General chatbots such as ChatGPT are good at writing and explaining. For questions about your own files you usually want something narrower: an answer that comes only from your documents, shows where it came from, and does not send them further than it has to.

Three things to ask of any AI that reads your files

  1. Where do my documents go? Know which servers receive them, how long they are kept, and whether they are used for training. Each provider's own terms answer this, and they differ by plan.
  2. Does the answer come from my documents? A general chatbot mixes your file with everything it learned in training. That is useful for writing, and risky when you need what your contract actually says.
  3. Can I check it? Without a pointer to the passage, the only way to verify an answer is to reread the document.

What Étoiles is not

It is not a general chatbot. It will not draft your essay or answer questions about the world; it answers questions about the documents you give it, and it tells you when they do not say. If you need both, use each for what it is good at.
