The software factory approach is getting pretty popular, but it can be daunting to adopt all at once.Let's go through “crawl, walk, run” steps for making the transition from local, interactive agents to automated cloud development. https://t.co/RugDAn4Vqg— Zach Lloyd (@zachlloydtweets) September 15, 2026
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.
