    "description": "A bit more than a year of work later and OpenMates (a user interests focused open source alternative to AI chatbots like ChatGPT, Claude, Manus, etc.) has developed a lot. Going from early concept to actual working alpha version. Join this meetup if you want to learn and contribute to the development. \r\n\r\nAbout OpenMates: \r\nDon't count on Google Gemini, OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude or others to prioritize user interests and privacy over profit. Both fascinated by the potential of using AI chatbots as digital team mates for learning and various daily tasks, and also worried about profit-at-all-costs companies shaping this future - I started working about a year ago on OpenMates - a better alternative to those platforms. Better as in: you can choose which model and server provider you want to use, better usability, better apps implementation, better privacy, better functionality overall.\r\n\r\nCurrently in an alpha version online. Be aware: A lot of further improvements and bug fixes will be made in the weeks before the workshop / 39c3.\r\n\r\nGit repo: https://github.com/glowingkitty/OpenMates Website & Web App: https://openmates.org",
