I didn't mean to suggest otherwise! That's why I also linked the CryptoNets paper - to show that you're transforming the inference to happen inside an FHE context, not trying to learn encrypted data
Yes, you can do Cryptonets. What I’m saying is that you don’t have to do cryptonets, you can simply use FHE to train the network in fully encrypted manner: both the network and the data are FHE-encrypted, so the training itself is an FHE application. It would be insanely slow and I doubt it can be done today even for “small” LLMs due to high overheads of FHE.
