Private AI inference, now in @brave Leo. Your chats can stay private, even from Brave. Even from us. With GLM 5.3 Flash, they run inside secure hardware no one can read, and Brave checks it before your browser sends a word.
Brave Leo now runs on private AI inference from NEAR AI Cloud, by @near_ai. Pick GLM 5.3 Flash in Leo and your chat is end-to-end encrypted into a hardware enclave (TEE). @brave can't read it. NEAR AI can't read it. The cloud host can't either. 🧵

Zero data retention isn't zero. Your prompts stay readable by the provider while they run, with exceptions in the fine print and no way to check who saw them. Here's why ZDR isn't enough, and what to use instead. near.ai/blog/zero-data-reten…

Can private AI survive quantum computers? Our lead engineer @Pierre_Le_Guen took that question on stage at @Ledger Op3n. One minute, worth it 👇
Spoke at @Ledger Op3n last week about whether security survives post-quantum, with @P3b7_ and @joshmo_dev. My take: quantum is not breaking anything tomorrow. The urgent part is not your coins, it's the data you send today. It can be recorded now and decrypted once the machines exist. Easy first step: update your browser. Around 70% of browser traffic to Cloudflare already uses post-quantum encryption.
