Puntos clave

The aim is to assess whether running AI locally ensures data privacy.
Analysis of the limitations of local AI models regarding data privacy.
Discussion on the implications of open egress and lack of verified air gaps or audit trails.
Examination of the Mickai system's approach to data security.
Running AI locally does not guarantee data privacy, as local models can still leak information.
Open egress and lack of protection measures can lead to data tampering.
Mickai’s audit trail and operational security features do enhance data management but are not foolproof.

Resumen

No. Running AI locally does not guarantee your data stays private. It removes the public cloud, but a local model with open egress, no verified air gap and no sealed audit trail can still leak or be tampered with, and cannot prove otherwise.Originally published at https://mickai.co.uk/articles/does-running-ai-locally-guarantee-your-data-stays-private. Mickai is a Sovereign Intelligence Operating System; the Open Audit Record signs every artificial intelligence action before it executes, post-quantum and offline-verifiable. 104 filed UK patent applications, Mickai LTD (Companies House 17166618).
