They said it couldn't be done... we were underestimated and under resourced at every turn. But as they say, necessity is the mother of invention, and I have always loved a good challenge. So proud of our team for pulling this off, and I had so much fun building the example on top of our platform.

🚨Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) has all the hype for secure compute, but it breaks down at scale. We built a production-ready alternative. We just trained a Naive Bayesian classification model (6 features predicting 1 risk level target) on 500K encrypted records in 70 seconds. Cost? Exactly 1 penny. 🧵👇





Six features, one target variable, 50K records, 94s. 90.8% accuracy, 1:1 results vs. same model trained on plaintext.

Hot take: #FHE set encryption-in-use back 5 years by overhyping and underdelivering, and convinced a lot of smart people that #encrypted #ML 'isn't ready yet.' Meanwhile, we just trained a #fraud model on 50K encrypted records in 90s. On standard hardware. #Demo in comments👇


Encryption is kind of a lie. Data can be encrypted at rest, and even in transit…but not “in use”. Fundamentally, CPUs execute arithmetic instructions on decrypted plaintext; even with secure enclaves. But what if we got *really* clever:
