We have to trust the hardware manufacturer (Intel/AMD/NVIDIA) designed their chips to execute the instructions we inspect, so we're assuming trust in vendor silicon either way.
The real benefit of confidential computing is to extend that trust to the source code too (the inference server, OS, firmware).
Maybe one day we’ll have truly open hardware ;)
Hi Nate. Routinely your various networking-related FOSS tools. Surprising to see you now work in the AI infrastructure space let alone co-founding a startup funded by YC! Tinfoil looks über neat. All the best (:
