TEEs solve verifiability and confidentiality at ~20% overhead
The Truth About Decentralized AI and the Future of Compute (TEACHMEDEFI)
“A big favorite for verifiability today is trusted execution environments, where it is vendor-attested workloads, essentially attested at the chip level, and with memory encryption it’s impossible to at least see inside a workload when it is encrypted at the memory level.” — 00:17:25
Context: He measures ~20% TEE overhead as “acceptable,” pairs TEEs with MPC and Akash’s audited attributes for data-residency needs, and says “TEE solves 99% of the problems” for verifiability and confidentiality.
