The private cloud compute foundation models are designed to process users' personal information with a focus on privacy and security. They are specifically built to run larger foundation models privately, using a new operating system based on the security foundations of iOS. This setup omits unnecessary features like persistent data storage to mitigate privacy risks and includes a full machine learning stack to power intelligence. The private cloud compute is built on Apple silicon and includes features like secure enclave, secure boot, and trusted execution monitor to ensure that only signed and verified code runs. It also establishes end-to-end encrypted connections for requests, ensuring that data is not retained after processing and is never accessible to Apple. This makes it suitable for applications that require high levels of privacy and security when processing personal data.
