for sure. hence the "cheap" word in the statement. Even the likes of ChatGPT and Claude monetize user data to subsidize the monetary price users pay.

It's surprising to me how surprised people are by this. If you wear glasses with cameras and mics, streaming the data to a company that openly admits it can see your data and monetize it, your personal life will be exposed. https://blossom.primal.net/f00bd21d2f36b8b8f8776e4b36629762238ea5fcf698b70cb6d85b87a8801399.png

Data continues to be the commodity, only now it is more dense and valuable. AI data contains thought processes, hopes & dreams, despair, and detailed sensitive data that can render a person vulnerable in a myriad of ways.
It's no surprise that companies like Anthropic & OpenAI launched as data collection companies. And it will be no surprise when a "Plaid for AI" comes to market. That company is quite possibly already here, operating under a different MO.

I’m a fan of local, sovereign computing. We don’t know which $20K hardware config will run the local models that are truly powerful. Thus the “one-time cost” today might be obsolete when that time comes.

2026-02-27 18:48:08 UTC

- reply

not in the immediate plans. local models just aren't good enough and likely won't be for 1-3 years. most people don't want to spend the money to buy and maintain $20K hardware annually.
you should check out what @nprofile…hckk and @nprofile…fu08 are each working on if you want to go the route of a local mini machine.

2026-02-27 18:44:55 UTC

The @nprofile…uh5t client generates a unique encryption key per user. That key is used to encrypt data throughout the process so we can't see your data. Our code is open-source and uses confidential computing to provide proof of the code running on our servers.
To my understanding, Venice is a proxy that passes your data through their servers, whether it's to open models or ChatGPT/Claude. Users can't verify the code running on their servers, so there aren't cryptographic proofs of privacy like Maple provides.

We aim to bring as much openness to the AI pipeline as possible. Getting @nprofile…uh5t on @nprofile…uvay is an important part of that. We wanted users to have a way to get a build of the app that is cryptographically signed by a key they can verify through Web of Trust.

yeah, similar in concept with a different approach that focuses more on security and privacy. OpenClaw is an open world with lots of attack vectors. Sage (and eventually Maple) will have highly useful personal assistant features that have strong security and privacy practices backing them.

The @nprofile…uh5t fork of Moltbot/Clawdbot is working.
This imports our SDK into it so you can directly chat with our TEE models without needing to run the maple-proxy itself. It also turns on enhanced memory with our embeddings api too.
Still rough and early but it's functional.
Just set the MAPLE_API_KEY and any of your optional settings / integrations and it should be all set.
