Venice AI shares the simple design and user experience found in ChatGPT and similar AI chatbots.
However, it sets itself apart by providing generative AI with more privacy, no censorship and zero costs.
That’s why Venice AI is becoming more popular worldwide. Learn more about its features and potential risks.
Venice AI: Bastion of free innovation?
The official website says its founders named Venice AI after the Italian city due to its historical background.
“It was a place of markets, trade, culture and civilizational advancement,” the site says.
“As we enter the age of AI, Venice will help accelerate machine intelligence regardless of the diktats of the authoritarians, but it should also imbue a unique and beautiful humanity into this future.”
This artificial intelligence allegedly sets itself apart from other counterparts as it only stores your conversation history in your browser.
Conversely, ChatGPT, Grok and other AI programs save your AI interactions and attach them to your identity.
Venice also claims that these popular AI platforms share user data with third parties and governments.
“Venice will never ‘review’ your conversations because it doesn’t store them,” it claims.
The app says it is “private and permissionless,” so it won’t spy on you or censor your AI usage.
It’s free to use, even without an account. At the time of writing, this artificial intelligence has text, image and code generators.
Paying $149 annually for the Pro Account opens more powerful features.
For example, it will open access to the newest and most intelligent models and let you enter unlimited prompts.
This unfiltered generative AI access attracted a huge demand among Filipinos.
Google Trends says there has been a 1,750% increase in Philippine search traffic for the term “Venice AI” within the last seven days.
However, understand that AI models have censors for minimizing criminal or other risks.
For example, DALL-E and other more popular image generators block pornographic images, especially those that contain real-world people.
The Venice AI website does not show other important details, such as its founders and headquarters.
