The problem
AI can use documents, preferences and conversations to provide more relevant answers. The question is where this context is processed, who can access it and what the person can decide.
Our choice
EVA-I is developing an approach that prioritises computation and context storage on the device. The aim is to bring processing closer to the user and limit the need for data transfers.
Using a remote service should be an understandable choice: what content is sent, to which provider and for which feature.
Three distinct dimensions
Local describes where computation happens. Personal describes the context and preferences taken into account. Sovereign describes control over decisions relating to data. One dimension does not guarantee the other two.
Scope
This page sets out a design direction. It is not an availability announcement or a general guarantee of privacy or performance. Features and data flows need to be described in their documentation.
