Google has announced Private AI Compute, a new platform that promises to bring powerful AI features to users without compromising their privacy. The idea is to combine the strength of Google’s Gemini AI models in the cloud with the same security and privacy protections users expect from on-device processing.

AI is becoming more personal and proactive, helping users not just respond to requests, but also anticipate needs, offer suggestions, and take actions automatically. However, this level of intelligence often needs more computing power than what’s available on a phone or laptop. That’s where Private AI Compute comes in: it lets devices connect with cloud models securely, giving faster and smarter responses while ensuring that personal data remains private.
Google describes Private AI Compute as a “secure, fortified space for processing your data that keeps your data isolated and private to you.” According to the tech giant, it ensures that your personal data stays private to you and is not accessible to anyone else, not even Google. The system uses encryption and remote attestation to ensure that data stays protected from the moment it leaves your device to when it’s processed in the cloud.
Google is already using Private AI Compute to improve features on its devices. For example, the Magic Cue on Pixel 10 phones will now offer more timely and relevant suggestions, and the Recorder app can summarize transcripts in more languages.
“This is just the beginning. Private AI Compute opens up a new set of possibilities for helpful AI experiences now that we can use both on-device and advanced cloud models for the most sensitive use cases,” Google explains.
