Defined term

Dataless LLMs

A language model is not dataless because the weights are public. It is dataless when your conversation cannot be reconstructed after the window closes.

Contrast

What it is not

Turning off “training on your data” is a policy toggle. Logs, caches, eval sets, and support transcripts still exist. Dataless LLMs refuse those surfaces.

Practice

Zero retention at inference

The same thesis as Dataless AI applied to inference: volatile context, randomized eviction of working-set fragments, content-free observability. See the patent.
