Tech Talk: Small Language Models: Catalysts for the Private AI Revolution
Speaker: Abhishek Rai (Gigaforce)
Abstract: As “cloud-first” AI giants assert that centralized Private AI Compute is just as secure as local processing, a new movement is emerging: the age of Small Language Models (SLMs) running securely at the edge. This session explores why SLMs—compact, fine-tunable, and locally deployable—are already unlocking opportunities for startups and builders that even the largest cloud providers struggle to match.
