From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

I've always been a fan of SLMs which fulfill a particular role in a constrained environment without ever requiring you to know that you are using an actual AI. IMHO, SLMs accompanied with local, decentralized implementation could really achieve something going forwards instead of a big one model sold by AIaaS…
