LLMs have transformed many applications - putting advanced AI within any developers reach. This unlocked amazing progress - but also introduced a dependency on model providers and ballooning inference costs. This talk will discuss an alternative approach - fine tuning and deploying smaller, specialized language models to cut costs & improve performance. We'll discuss how to identify the right use cases for SLMs, evaluate their performance and deploy them effectively.
