I heard that they require plaintext data to work. What are the other factors to this?

    AFAIK you can only encrypt the connection to the AI and promise to not keep any logs, but the AI needs to ingest readable data. So whomever owns the hardware can see what’s being fed into it. Yeah you can mix instances and chat history and not link the requests to any one person but it will never be completely private.

      Yes. All that’s true when using a 3rd party AI engine.
      That’s why Proton is running their own, in house. The AI still needs plain text. But they can ensure everything is isolated and private.
