    I think this is true for some tasks where you want a clean slate, but increasingly I find myself constantly referencing specific skills, or having files with prompts I use all the …

    Hi, cofounder of Tinfoil here. We're working on implementing prompt caching. It just requires more work than with traditional, non-private inference and requires some careful consi…

    It's a perfect prompt for a rich HN discussion so while in general I agree with you, in this case the discussion is what matters.

    It's not an unreasonable concern, which is why most US companies prefer to go with AWS bedrock, or even one of the AI labs, and typically request zero data retention agreements. Bu…

    I still have the Be My Eyes app installed but haven’t had a call in over a year - I think it’s a testament to how powerful AI vision models have become. I find it cool that AI work…

    Beautiful lecture. As with a lot of things that shape our everyday life we forget to contemplate their qualities. For example fonts subtly impact how we perceive, understand, feel …

    Not to mention their recent integration of Persona ID verification - that was the last straw for me.

    But they already have PII on nearly all users. Many user upload documents with their name, or pictures of themselves, or have a chat where home addresses are involved. All of this …

    Yes it appears your personal data IS being sent to open router and the model provider here. The problem I think is that a lot of people (especially in the openclaw community) mista…

    The attestation report is produced ahead of time and verified on each connection (before the prompt is sent). Every time the client connects to do an inference request via one of t…

    The attestation is tied to the Modelwrap root hash (the root hash is included in the attestation report) so you know that the machine that is serving the model has the right model …

    The absence of solutions for LLM privacy on that list is telling. We’ve figured out how to have private communications with other humans via end to end encryption but arguably we’r…

    It uses confidential computing primitives like Intel TDX and NVIDIA CC, available on the latest generations of GPUs. Secure hardware like this is a building block to enable verifia…

    reminds me of a story called “a disneynand without children” about a planet overtaken by AI pursuing meaningless “inbred” GDP goals and completely neglecting the humans in the proc…

    not to mention the privacy concerns associated with connecting my entire life to OpenAI or Anthropic. If you have the memory feature enabled, it's scary how much ChatGPT knows abou…

    This is really neat! Didn’t realize it could be this simple to run RL on models. Quick question: How would I specify the reward function for tool use? or is this something you auto…

    I was once hiking in the dark in the south of Japan. I crossed a few streams but didn't think much of it. A while later, I felt like my socks were sticking to my shoes and unusuall…

    I think there is a difficult cost benefit analysis with screen sharing. For example, what constitutes PII in that context? Maybe the text on the screen can be extracted and redacte…
