Argues that practical private AI comes from deploying secure hardware (Intel TDX/AMD SEV and NVIDIA confidential computing) plus verifiable supply chain checks and transparency logs, not waiting for fully homomorphic encryption to be fast. Describes remote attestation tied to a public six store ledger and open-source build artifacts, reports confidential inference serving billions of tokens daily with minimal GPU overhead, and shows private chat/inference apps and private training working end to end.
