RAG Time: Tuning Into Cost-Effective LLM Adoption Strategies for SMEs

Large language models (LLMs) have disrupted many industries and pushed businesses, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to attempt AI application implementations. LLMs are fine-tuned on business data to handle a specific domain, but this process is too costly and resource intensive for SMEs. AI engineers can replace fine-tuning with a vector database, which acts as long-term memory and allows an LLM to use up-to-date business data.

Faux Data, Real Intelligence: Low-cost AI Model Training with Synthetic Datasets

AI models require large amounts of data during the training phase, otherwise, models will be biased and perform poorly on given tasks. Although vendors sell datasets to remedy this, datasets are not available for all domains. IT teams tasked with AI responsibilities can use synthetic data generation to train AI models for data-scarce domains to create high-quality datasets on the cheap and fast-track AI model deployment.

Recognize the Restrictions of Frictionless Shopping & Self-Checkout

Frictionless shopping and self-checkout reshape how customers shop. These technologies are designed to allow customers to exit stores faster and reduce contact with employees. However, continued friction for customers and theft of goods are major drawbacks of these technologies. Businesses should proceed with caution and should not rush to implement frictionless shopping or self-checkout.

Model Quantization in Action: How SMEs Can Benefit From On-Device AI

AI mobile applications are becoming commonplace on smartphones but some mobile applications require models to reside on cloud servers for high accuracy and intensive inference. This is impractical for SMEs due to high model hosting and inference costs. Instead, an SME’s IT team should reduce costs by implementing edge AI using their mobile applications and model quantization.
