Description

TECHNICAL FIELD This disclosure relates generally to electronic communication methods, systems, and devices, and more specifically relates to electronic communication methods, systems, and devices, that employ context specific invocation of predictive models and context specific storage of their outputs. BACKGROUND In recent years, as the volume of digital data has grown, so too has the need for robust methods of protecting sensitive information. Personal data, such as financial records, medical histories, and other personally identifiable information (PII), is increasingly stored and processed on various digital platforms (e.g., locally and/or on remote servers). Further, many professions (e.g., legal, engineering, medical etc.) often handle and record confidential information on their electronic devices. While these digital systems offer significant benefits in terms of accessibility and scalability, they also introduce substantial risks associated with unauthorized access, data breaches, and compliance challenges with regulatory standards for data privacy. Further, for many professions, unauthorized access to sensitive data can lead to for harsh professional and legal consequences. These problems have been exacerbated by the rise of predictive software applications. For example, due to the black box nature of many of these software applications, it can be unclear where inputs and/or outputs of a predictive software application is stored and how they are used once they are stored. Therefore, in view of the above, there is a need for a novel system and method for invoking predictive software applications and storing their inputs and outputs. SUMMARY A first aspect of this disclosure provides a system comprising: one or more processors; and one or more non-transitory memories storing computing instructions configured to communicate with the one or more processors and cause the one or more processors to perform: receiving one or more electronic signals recording a meeting between two or more individuals; analyzing the one or more electronic signals to determine a privacy level of the meeting; when the privacy level is above a predetermined threshold, initializing a predictive software application locally on a mobile electronic device of at least one of the two or more individuals; and when the privacy level is below the predetermined threshold, initializing the predictive software application remotely on a cloud server. The computing instructions may be further configured to cause the one or more processors to perform: prior to receiving the one or more electronic signals, analyzing a calendar invite scheduling the meeting; and pre-loading one or more predictive software applications onto a mobile device. Analyzing the calendar invite may comprise analyzing a specialty of the at least one of the two or more individuals; and the one or more predictive software applications comprise one or more specialized transcription software applications. The one or more predictive software applications may comprise a predictive software application trained on training data encoding a specialty of the at least one of the two or more individuals. The analyzing the one or more electronic signals may comprise analyzing one or more of voice tonality, background noises, gyroscope data, or open software applications to determine the privacy level. The analyzing the one or more electronic signals may comprise analyzing a voice tonality to determine whether the at least one of the two or more individuals is whispering; and the computing instructions may be further configured to cause the one or more processors to perform: determining that the privacy level is above the predetermined threshold. The computing instructions may be further configured to cause the one or more processors to perform: after transcribing the meeting, distributing an output of the one or more predictive software applications to each mobile electronic device of the two or more individuals. A second aspect of this disclosure provides a method comprising: receiving one or more electronic signals recording a meeting between two or more individuals; analyzing the one or more electronic signals to determine a privacy level of the meeting; when the privacy level is above a predetermined threshold, initializing a predictive software application locally on a mobile electronic device of at least one of the two or more individuals; and when the privacy level is below the predetermined threshold, initializing the predictive software application remotely on a cloud server. The method may further comprise: prior to receiving the one or more electronic signals, analyzing a calendar invite scheduling the meeting; and pre-loading one or more predictive software applications onto a mobile device. The analyzing the calendar invite may comprises analyzing a specialty of the at least one of the two or more individuals; and the one or more predictive software applications may com
