zacchj··on Show HN: Building an End-to-End Encrypted Shazam with Homomorphic Encryption
Yes, but I think it illustrates that FHE has the power to safeguard users' privacy for any app that require mic access... !
zacchj··on A solution to A16Z Nakamoto challenge on "Compliant Programmable Privacy"
Pascal Paillier (CTO at Zama) is speaking about speed improvements for FHE in this video: https://youtu.be/QWMSHbD__Jc?si=vSiKMAbbzW4LcV2v
zacchj··on A solution to A16Z Nakamoto challenge on "Compliant Programmable Privacy"
Quite exciting seeing the speed at which the FHE space is evolving this last 2-3 years...
zacchj··on How to Write Confidential Smart Contracts Using Zama's FhEVM [video]
Hey all,

Jeremy Here from Zama, if you are interested in learning more, check out our code on Github, everything we do is open source: https://github.com/zama-ai/fhevm

And, of course, let us know if any question :)

zacchj··on Encrypted Large Language Models with Homomorphic Encryption
Zama's research on the application of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to Large Language Models is now featured on @huggingface. Their Machine Learning team recently discovered that FHE has the potential to safeguard both user privacy and the Intellectual Property of the model.
zacchj··on TFHE-rs: The fastest open source Homomorphic Encryption library
Yes, you can find more information in this blog post, where we explain our choice to create a separate FHE library from our Concrete framework. > https://www.zama.ai/post/announcing-tfhe-rs
zacchj··on Show HN: Sentiment Analysis on Encrypted Data with Homomorphic Encryption
And read this blog post to see how we do it https://huggingface.co/blog/sentiment-analysis-fhe
zacchj··on The Rise of Fully Homomorphic Encryption
There is also use cases listed here:

Also anyone can contribute and add resources as it lives on an open source github repo.

zacchj··on The Rise of Fully Homomorphic Encryption
If you want to see a practical use case of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) with Machine Learning.

> https://www.zama.ai/post/titanic-competition-with-privacy-pr...

Its main ambition is to show that FHE can be used for protecting data when using a Machine Learning model to predict outcomes without degrading its performance.

Disclaimer: I'm working at Zama (cited in the article posted).

zacchj··on Homomorphic Encryption can now be used by anyone, without knowing cryptography
While the idea behind Fully Homomorphic Encryption has been around for decades, it suffered three major issues: it was too slow, too hard to use, and too limited in terms of what you could do with it.

With Concrete, all this changes! Learn how we are addressing these three challenges in our official product release post.

And feel free to ask us if you have any question about FHE or what we do at Zama :)

zacchj··on Show HN: Predictive ML model on encrypted data with Fully Homomorphic Encryption
Hello there,

Our main idea here was not only to build a predictive model that answers the question: “what sorts of people were more likely to survive?” but also to do it on encrypted data.

This was possible thanks to our Python package: Concrete-ML that aims to simplify the use of fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) for data scientists.

Feel free to ask the team if you have any questions about our work!

zacchj··on Compile NumPy Functions to Their Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) Equivalents
It's still early, but we do think that FHE is getting ready for prime time, and for being used in cloud applications. We are confident that it can be speed up by a factor of 100–1000x in the next 5 years, making FHE an ubiquitous technology for protecting privacy....
zacchj··on We need revolutionary hardware for Fully Homomorphic Encryption – FHE.org
Hello everyone and fellow cryptographers,

The next FHE.org meetup will be on November 23rd at 6pm Paris time. Rosario Cammarota from Intel will be talking about hardware acceleration for homomorphic encryption.

All the info are on the fhe.org website, including the link to register.

Finally, we have started a community discord to discuss about FHE, for those interested in continuing the conversation after the meetups! https://discord.gg/fvZ48443zD
