Google is introducing a cloud-based system called Private AI Compute designed to protect user data during AI processing. Jay Yagnik, Google's Vice President of AI Innovation, said the technology runs tasks inside an isolated environment that no one - not even Google - can access.
The system uses Google's own TPUs along with Titanium Intelligence Enclaves for encrypted data handling, building on the company’s existing privacy and security framework.
Early applications appear on Pixel devices, including Magic Cue and the Recorder app, which now supports more languages. The goal is to let Gemini models deliver their full performance without exposing personal data. Google has also published a technical brief outlining the system's architecture and privacy safeguards.

Google plans to invest about 5.5 billion euros (around $6 billion) in Germany by 2029, with most of the funding going to new data centers and expanded office space. The company will build a new data center near Frankfurt and expand another facility in the same area. Munich, Frankfurt, and Berlin are also slated for new or larger office spaces.
Google says these projects will support around 9,000 jobs per year and contribute over 1 billion euros annually to Germany’s economic output. German Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil described the move as "investments for future jobs in Germany" and emphasized the need to boost private investment alongside public funds. "This is exactly what we need right now," Klingbeil said. According to Google, these investments are part of its long-term strategy for Europe.
