"Moxie Marlinspike, the mind behind the secure messaging app Signal, has launched an alternative to AI chatbot ChatGPT that focuses on user privacy and security. It's probably no surprise that the popularity of ChatGPT is leading it down a well-worn path: the arrival of ads. However, this shift also highlights how our data is currency that tech organizations are falling over themselves to profit from, as well as growing data privacy concerns connected with AI chatbots."
"Moxie Marlinspike, cryptography expert and the founder of Signal, wants to create a step change. In December, he launched Confer, described as "end-to-end encryption for AI chats." "With Confer, your conversations are encrypted so that nobody else can see them," Marlinspike said in a blog post. "Confer can't read them, train on them, or hand them over -- because only you have access to them.""
Moxie Marlinspike, founder of Signal, launched Confer to provide end-to-end encryption for AI chats. The concept is that conversations with an AI assistant should be as private as conversations with a person. Confer encrypts conversations so nobody else can read them, and only the user has access. Confer cannot read, train on, or hand over user conversations to third parties. The popularity of ChatGPT has attracted ads and raised concerns about data being treated as currency by tech companies. Experts have warned about AI privacy and security risks, and research shows over 40% of workers have shared sensitive information with AI.
