Let’s talk about AI and end-to-end encryption
Recently I came across a fantastic new paper by a group of NYU and Cornell researchers entitled “How to think about end-to-end encryption and AI.” I’m extremely grateful to see th…

Privacy Considerations with AI Tools
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools come in all sorts of flavors. There are notetaking and transcription tools, chatbots, device-wide agentic AI features, grammar and writing tools, translation assistants, AI summaries, and research tools, among others. As a term, “AI” may refer to features in apps, apps themselves, third-party plug-ins, or a...

Private Cloud Compute: A new frontier for AI privacy in the cloud - Apple Security Research
Secure and private AI processing in the cloud poses a formidable new challenge. To support advanced features of Apple Intelligence with larger foundation models, we created Private Cloud Compute (PCC), a groundbreaking cloud intelligence system designed specifically for private AI processing. Built with custom Apple silicon and a hardened operating system, Private Cloud Compute extends the industry-leading security and privacy of Apple devices into the cloud, making sure that personal user data sent to PCC isn’t accessible to anyone other than the user — not even to Apple. We believe Private Cloud Compute is the most advanced security architecture ever deployed for cloud AI compute at scale.

How Google is Making Private AI Practical with Homomorphic Encryption
Today we're excited to showcase HEIR, the latest powerful tool added to our Private Computing Toolkit. HEIR is an open source compiler that unlocks cryptographically-sec…

Apple Intelligence Promises Better AI Privacy. Here’s How It Actually Works
Private Cloud Compute is an entirely new kind of infrastructure that, Apple’s Craig Federighi tells WIRED, allows your personal data to be “hermetically sealed inside of a privacy bubble.”
