In this episode, Robert and Haley delve into three essential model compression strategies that can supercharge AI performance for businesses tackling real-time tasks. With AI tools becoming crucial for applications like fraud detection, airport security, and even biometric boarding, companies need faster, more cost-effective solutions. That’s where compression techniques come in—helping models run faster and smoother, even on resource-limited devices like smartphones.

Here's what we’ll cover:

Model Pruning: Cutting down neural networks by removing unnecessary elements, creating a streamlined model with lower costs and faster outputs.
Quantization: Reducing memory usage and increasing processing speed by representing model parameters with smaller data types, perfect for edge devices.
Knowledge Distillation: Training a “student” model to mimic the performance of a larger, complex “teacher” model, making it faster and lighter.

We’ll break down how these techniques are helping businesses save money and operate efficiently in a competitive digital landscape. Let Robert and Haley guide you through the future of AI optimization. Whether you're an AI enthusiast or business leader, this episode equips you with the insights to make real-time AI work for you!
