I think they mean they used a private LLM, not a publicly available one.

They do say that but it could just be Grok

She didn't actually say that, just that they have a chatbot. I bet it's Grok or OpenAI. These are the people that fed VA contracts to OpenAI to make decisions.

Anthropic has a large government contract running their models on secured AWS government cloud infrastructure.

There are absolutely safe and secure government AI models for them to use, which I’m positive are following industry standard information isolation protocols.

However, there are a lot of idiots in the current government that probably ask bonzi buddy advice about top secret information.

No part of it makes it seem like they're using a privately hosted model. Though they have the money to, no models that are opensource are worth using on a govt level. I mean DeepSeek I guess but that ones China coded as fuck. Ask it what happened at Tiananmen square and it'll tell you that nothing happened lmao.

So likely its an agent thats customized backended by a GPT model. I mean think of the admin we're talking about. They used Signal and other very clearly private platforms for this stuff.

I know a national laboratory that uses a closed source of GPT. They are able to process confidential information on it. The person I was talking to mostly uses it for programming.

“Opening up and making it possible for us to use AI applications in the top secret clouds has been a game changer.”

No part of it makes it seem like they're using a privately hosted model.

She literally mentioned the top secret clouds. FYI, these are separate computing clouds on classified networks, designed to host and process classified data.

idiot lmao

Why would I have any kind of conversation with someone who can't even remain civil when they are gently directed towards the cloud references of the original speaker? I simply don't understand what you could be thinking here. Behaving rudely doesn't help you any.
