AI Scenarios in Which Small Language Models Outshine Large Language Models

About Event
While increasing scale has been the core driving trend in the development of large language models (LLMs), a contrarian trend has recently emerged: the development of small language models (SLMs). While LLMs have traditionally dominated the development of language models, SLMs offer potential solutions to key challenges identified by functional leaders, including budget constraints, data protection, privacy concerns and risk mitigation associated with AI. In this complimentary Gartner IT webinar, we compare SLMs to LLMs in 4 areas: generic language understanding and generation, in-context learning capabilities, computational requirements for serving and computational requirements for fine-tuning. We then discuss 5 scenarios in which SLMs outshine LLMs: multiple task-specialized models, high user interaction volumes, organizational language models, sensitive data or regulatory restrictions and edge use cases. You will walk away from this session with answers to your vital questions, a copy of the research slides and recommended actions to help you achieve your goals.
