Declaración del fundador de Astrohaus sobre la IA y la privacidad

julio 30, 2024 | 2 lectura mínima

La inteligencia artificial ya ha transformado la escritura. Pero eso no significa que no debas controlar tus propias palabras.

En Astrohaus, adoptamos las nuevas tecnologías; es decir, no somos una empresa de informática retro. Nos apasiona pensar en cómo las nuevas tecnologías pueden integrarse de forma inteligente en nuestras vidas. La palabra clave "inteligente" es muy importante. También creemos que no debemos quedarnos de brazos cruzados y permitir que la tecnología nos pisotee a nosotros ni a nuestros valores.

Quiero ser totalmente claro: tu escritura es tuya . Salvo la sincronización con proveedores de nube autorizados como Google y Dropbox, nunca venderemos, prestaremos ni daremos acceso a tu trabajo privado.

Si desea utilizar su trabajo escrito como material para un Máster en Derecho (LLM), debe decidirlo usted mismo y aceptarlo. Actualmente, Astrohaus no ofrece IA ni LLM, pero estas herramientas son demasiado potentes como para ignorarlas. Ya ayudan a los escritores a generar ideas, resumir y editar. Si alguna vez integramos herramientas de IA, quiero que sepa que sus datos nunca se utilizarán sin su consentimiento explícito.

Y solo para reiterar: el equipo de Astrohaus no tiene acceso a sus datos, a excepción de miembros limitados de nuestro equipo de desarrollo cuando es necesario para hacer su trabajo para mejorar nuestros servicios y mantenimiento.

Al sincronizar tus documentos de Postbox con servicios en la nube de terceros como Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Evernote o Dropbox, tus datos se rigen por las políticas de inteligencia artificial de esos servicios, no por las de Astrohaus. Aquí encontrarás enlaces a sus políticas relevantes:

Dropbox

Google Drive

Microsoft OneDrive

Evernote

Astrohaus se compromete a promover la expresión y celebrar el valor del lenguaje escrito. Su compromiso con el arte de escribir nos inspira a diario, y mantener la integridad de su voz es fundamental en todo lo que hacemos. Gracias por elegir Freewrite como su aliado creativo.

Astrohaus, the team behind Freewrite, is an American company. Like many American companies, and virtually all consumer electronic brands, our cost base is global. We work with contractors in Europe, in South America, and in Asia. We purchase components from a global supply chain and assemble our product in China, but make no mistake, we are an American company. The majority of our costs, including goods, services, and payroll, are from the United States. Most of our team lives in the Midwest. I founded this company in Detroit, Michigan, and am still here. I am proud to have built an American company that supports 10+ Americans and their families.

But now we are caught in a trade war that threatens our very existence. A war that was building up over time but has crescendoed to a point that no business owner could have prepared for. As I write this today, we have to pay an additional 145% of the cost of any product made in China as a tax to the U.S. Government.Yesterday it was 104%, up from 54%. In March it was 20% and in February it was 10%. Tomorrow?

Astrohaus is an importer because there is no consumer electronics industry in the U.S. China has emerged over the decades as the world's factory. At first, as a low-cost solution, but in 2025, they are undeniably the best in the world.

Now we are in a pickle because we have established relationships with our contract manufacturing partners that go back to when we started in 2014. Yes, some of the folks we work with today have been with us since the very beginning. They took a chance on us and helped us get off the ground. I have personally spent months on the ground in Hong Kong and China working closely with these folks, whom I now call friends.

Everyone, including our contract manufacturing partners, is helping us explore our options, but the truth is that it is incredibly difficult to move factories. It takes careful planning, huge expense, and much more time than we have.

Unfortunately, we can’t wait to let the trade war resolve itself, nor do we have the advantage big companies like Apple have with a diversified supply base in various countries. We must work with our existing supply base in China, and that means adjusting prices to cover some of our new costs. That's assuming a trade deal gets done, because 100%+ tariffs are simply untenable long term.

As one last hurrah, today through Sunday we will be keeping prices as they have been. Get them while they last.

On Monday, April 14, we will be raising prices. Not because we want to, but because we have to.Thank you for standing by us over the years. We aren’t going anywhere.

Write on,

Adam

Bryan Young writes for many magazines and online publications. As you get more entrenched within the industry and develop relationships with editors, the process can vary widely. But at the start of cultivating those relationships, it’s usually very much the same. Here's his walk-through of the process.
