I heard that Mistral Le Chat uses AWS servers. What are other alternatives that dont put money into us companies? At least datacenters.

I know that polish llm - https://bielik.ai/ chat.bielik.ai has own servers. What are other alternatives?

Why Le Chat is not using ovh or scaleway?

Euria from Infomaniak. Surprisingly quite good and ethical.

Itโ€™s just Qwen3 - an Alibaba model. You can also run it yourself locally.

Just ask about specific events the CCP does not like or Tianโ€™anmen if you want to confirm.

Well I learned something thanks. Quite disappointing from them. They are advertising ethics, warming building blablabla but they have no problem with that.
