TALK
In recent years, the emergence of edge computing has reduced the costs associated with transferring data to centralized cloud servers by relocating data processing to edge devices placed within the local network. Edge computing is a promising solution for distributed applications requiring privacy and real-time data processing capability with minimal delays. However, utilizing the full potential of this paradigm is not feasible without the capabilities to analyze complex data and generate new content. This talk investigates the challenges of deploying generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the edge to enhance privacy and efficiently use network and computational resources. By considering the limitations of edge environments and exploring current solutions for optimizing AI models on resource-limited devices, this talk addresses the challenges of implementing efficient distributed learning for generative AI applications, such as Large Language Models.
