The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

We don't know.

So there is a very good reason to try and have as much localized compute power as possible.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

And to my earlier point, the models are also getting smaller.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

They're getting not only smaller, but better when they're smaller, which is a very exciting thing to see.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

And I think that the more that we specialize into...

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

niche models, the more that we'll see smaller models get used.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

I guess the counterpoint, though, is like, what if you do have a really niche use case that you think, you know, you don't need like incredible data, you know, gigawatt level data centers to do?

The Neuron: AI Explained

You can technically train your own model on like a workstation or a series of workstations.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Great question.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Yeah.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Right.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Because you only need it for that very specific case.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Quick tangent about that.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

I wrote for a company once that was doing basically the equivalent of that, but for drones.

The Neuron: AI Explained

And so they have these automated drone swarms that basically can survey people.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

different, uh, like let's say like in, in the transport industry, for example, like, you know, basically figuring out inventory levels, you know, checking grain, all that sort of stuff.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

They run on this sort of autonomous loop and they basically are trying to figure out all of these things.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Like how much inventory do we have?

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Like, is there any theft going on?

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI PC Buyer’s Guide: Specs That Actually Matter (ft. Dell’s Logan Lawler)

Really sick.
