Confidential and self-sovereign AI is a new approach to AI development, training, and inference where the user’s data is decentralized, private, and controlled by the users themselves. This post explores how the capabilities of Confidential Computing (CC) are expanded through decentralization using blockchain technology. The problem being solved is most clearly shown through the use of…
]]>In the era of generative AI, vector databases have become indispensable for storing and querying high-dimensional data efficiently. However, like all databases, vector databases are vulnerable to a range of attacks, including cyber threats, phishing attempts, and unauthorized access. This vulnerability is particularly concerning considering that these databases often contain sensitive and…
