So both on the infrastructure side and also on the device compute power side, it's a
perfect setup for the smaller models to be more popular.
As consumers and day to day users, we're already spoiled by real time and very performant applications.
If you're talking to a chat bot, if you're talking to a conversational AI, if you're adding filters to your video and images on Instagram or TikTok, you don't wanna wait for multiple seconds to load a new filter.
You don't wanna wait for multiple seconds for the chatbot to respond to you.
Those are many
real use cases that can really delight and improve user experience.
Also, optimization for compute.
There are a lot of harder, more complex questions or video processing that requires going into the cloud.
But largely if it's again changing user experiences and improving the visual and sound effect of things, it doesn't have to route through multiple servers going through a network.
So both from a user experience and efficiency perspective, it's a much better design to run some of the models on device.
And then the last part is just privacy.
Users do care about if my media notes is taken local.
I probably will use this meeting note taker much more often.
than knowing some of the data is being sent to a server and they're processing a lot of my private conversations.
So depends on the use case again for an application.
I think that also improves that option.
First come to mind is real-time voice agents.
It's a very popular topic and it's something I'm very excited about.
We invested in and work very closely with this company called Eleven Labs and that's one of the areas they're spending also a lot of efforts on is not just having
