Signal Creators New AI Assistant Won’t Read Your Chats—Not Even the Admins Can

Moxie Marlinspike, a developer behind Signal company, has launched Conferr is an open-source AI assistant that was released in the past. It has privacy at its heart like it is on its messaging platform, and this too. It’s also a way of saying that no one can read your conversations with Confer (not even server administrators) let alone hackers or law enforcement. By default, encryption is on; data and conversations from users and the answers are encrypted in a “trusted execution environment” (TEE) that prevents anyone from accessing or tampering with them.

Conversations on Confer AI stay private

By encryption, Signal allows for the reading of messages only to parties involved in a conversation. Confers Confer AI protects user promptings, AI responses and all data that is in them. Unlike Signal, it’s not possible to connect individual users with their real-world identity via email address, IP address or other information. confer artificial intelligence will not train itself with the data; it does not pass that data on to a third party, nor will Confer AI sell its data. The fact that data is the value addition to keep AI chatbot free is quite a bold move, so this is very much like it does for .

It says data encryption is on before it evenreaches the server, using passkeys, according to the company. This industry-wide standard creates an encryption keypair of 32 byte (along with each service) that’s unique to the type of encryption used by a user. The public key is sent to the server, while the private key only remains on user device (inside protected storage hardware) that even hackers can’t access. Two-factor authentication is provided by Passkeys and you can configure them with a face scan, fingerprint or device unlock PIN or passcode.

Syncs chats between devices

Also, Confer allows for syncing chats between devices the user owns. Even Confer’s creators can not unlock them, even though they are based on cryptographic design. Confer has a remote attestation feature, whereby any user can check the exact code that is being executed on Confers’s servers. Additionally, the platform will also reportedly publish the software stack in full and digitally sign every release.

ChatGPT, Gemini and Meta AI all provide opt-out toggles for options such as chat history (allowing data to be trained), or outright deleting data. But then these are on default, and you have to choose out. In contrast, Confer is the default because it sets most private setup as the norm for s.

In recent versions of macOS, iOS and Android, Confer has native support for Native Support. Nevertheless, on Windows users must install a third-party authenticator. There is no Linux support but an extension bridges that gap with .
