Proton’s AI chatbot, Lumo, just got a major upgrade to version 2.0, adding image recognition and generation capabilities, as well as improved project management features and faster response times. The new version also includes a ‘thinking mode’ for more complex problems and user-controlled persistent memory, allowing Lumo to recall user preferences across conversations. With its zero-access encryption architecture and promise to never use customer data for AI training, Lumo 2.0 offers a unique combination of power and privacy. Why it matters: Lumo 2.0’s focus on privacy sets it apart in the AI chatbot landscape, giving users a secure alternative to other popular chatbots.
