Are privacy-preserving techniques actually being used in production ML systems? [D]

I've been reading more about privacy-preserving ML approaches such as differential privacy, federated learning, and on-device inference. The research literature is fairly active, but I'm curious about real-world adoption. For those working in industry: Are these techniques being deployed in production? What were the biggest engineering challenges? Did privacy requirements significantly impact model performance or infrastructure costs? Are there specific use cases where privacy-preserving approaches have proven especially valuable? Interested in hearing both success stories and cases where the tradeoffs made adoption difficult. submitted by /u/Electrical_Mine1912 [link] [留言]
