Ask HN: How do you use AI for development in high security environments?

I'm curious how this is done effectively assuming no source should be sent to a model hosted remotely. Are there foundational model toggles for using inference and embedding but not using data for training?

All the big providers offer no-training/retention guarantees (either by default, or as a toggle, or upon request). For many high security environments though I'd expect everything to be hosted on-prem or at minimum on company-controlled instances, which does limit your model options somewhat.

My employer has such contracts for some use cases, but actually forbids use of code completion/generation due to IP concerns.
