I might be wrong, but it sounds like hosted nextcloud, not a completely new platform.

Thats from the current nextcloud docs:

We strive to bring Artificial Intelligence features to Nextcloud. This section highlights these features, how they work and where to find them. All of these features are completely optional. If you want to have them on your server, you need install them via separate Nextcloud Apps.

I don‘t think religion is to blame for what some abuse it for.
