Eternal Plans Encrypted AI Assistant dark.ai

Oct 22, 2026
Eternal plans to launch dark.ai globally by the end of 2026. The assistant will use encrypted conversations, user controlled memory and open weight models hosted on the company's infrastructure.

Eternal, the parent company of Zomato and Blinkit, is testing a privacy focused AI assistant called dark.ai, according to Business Standard. The company plans a global launch by the end of 2026.

Dark.ai will run fine tuned open weight models on Eternal's infrastructure. Eternal says conversations will use end to end encryption, preventing the company from reading them. An encrypted memory layer controlled by users will retain context between sessions.

The assistant is intended for sensitive conversations, confidential research and business decisions. Eternal expects users to include founders, researchers, scientists, companies and governments. The company claims its models outperform other large language models but has not published supporting benchmarks.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
