project
Meta's confidential computing infrastructure for AI workloads, which runs inference inside attested confidential virtual machines in Meta data centres.
Private Processing runs glasses workloads in confidential VMs and logs every production image in an append-only public ledger, so the isolation claim can be checked from outside, though the matching binaries reach researchers only under agreement.
Reality
Meta says a stateful, deeply personal assistant cannot fit in a pair of glasses, so inference runs in confidential VMs in its data centres, and the client sends nothing unless two attestation checks pass.
Reality
Private Processing, the siloed cloud scheme Meta built for WhatsApp last year, is coming to Ray-Ban Meta glasses so the assistant can work on data Meta says it cannot read. Meta's engineering director told WIRED he does not have a timeline.
