TensorCommitments (TCs) is a lightweight, tensor-native proof‑of‑inference scheme that enables verifiable inference for large language models (LLMs) without requiring the verifier to rerun the model or possess a powerful GPU. By binding each inference to a commitment stored in multivariate Terkle Trees, TCs detect tampering with only a 0.97% overhead for the prover and 0.12% for the verifier on LLaMA2. The approach improves robustness against tailored LLM attacks by up to 48% compared to previous methods that needed a verifier GPU.

SpliTEE extends the split‑inference architecture of Slalom to large language models by protecting intermediate GPU computations with differential privacy rather than encryption. The authors show that masking intermediate representations is essential, as a prompt‑reconstruction attack can recover prompts with about 80% accuracy. Their global sensitivity analysis bounds the noise needed, and they demonstrate that SpliTEE on Intel TDX achieves near‑double the speed of fully CPU‑based inference and outperforms encryption‑based Slalom while maintaining higher accuracy.
