🔒 Google on Tuesday introduced Private AI Compute, a cloud privacy capability that aims to deliver on-device-level assurances while harnessing the scale of Gemini models. The service uses Trillium TPUs and Titanium Intelligence Enclaves (TIE) and relies on an AMD-based Trusted Execution Environment to encrypt and isolate memory on trusted nodes. Workloads are mutually attested, cryptographically validated, and ephemeral so inputs and inferences are discarded after each session, with Google stating data remains private to the user — 'not even Google.' An external assessment by NCC Group flagged a low-risk timing side channel in the IP-blinding relay and three attestation implementation issues that Google is mitigating.

🤝 Google Cloud is increasing local AI compute in India with its AI Hypercomputer powered by Trillium TPUs, enabling training and serving of advanced Gemini models with data residency and sovereignty controls.
