 OpenAI seems to have been hacked a while ago. Scary. Locally executable AI models are the only way to protect people privacy and ensure resilience / independence. New generation smartphones and laptops are more than powerful enough to fine tune general LLMs with user's own…— Paolo Ardoino 🤖🍐 (@paoloardoino) <a href="https://twitter.com/paoloardoino/status/1809690415895048259?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">July 6, 2024</a>

He claims that current laptops and smartphones have the computing power to exploit user data to optimize general large language models (LLMs), and that these improvements are saved locally on the device. 
This setup enhances security by keeping data local and enables offline use, empowering users with powerful AI-driven experiences while maintaining full control over their information. 
Following Tether’s recent announcement of its AI growth, Ardoino stated that the business is “actively exploring” the inclusion of locally executable models into its AI offerings. 
Paolo described<a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/03/26/tether-leads-cryptocurrency-innovation-with-ai-expansion/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> locally executable AI models</a> as a paradigm shift for user privacy and independence. These models operate directly on users’ devices, such as smartphones or laptops, eliminating the need for third-party servers. This is in reaction to a <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/07/05/openai-confidential-ai-details-stolen-in-2023-breach-report/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent hack that OpenAI</a>, the developer of ChatGPT, encountered.

KoinX added that this incident has fueled a growing demand for decentralizing AI technologies, as organizations seek to enhance security and resilience in the face of increasing cyber threats.
