Keynote: AI without the BS, for humans
AI is fun to say, but is it BS? Join Scott Hanselman as he explores "LMs both VL and S" (very large and small) and learns if they are useful or not?
What about NPUs on your phone or laptop? What can a small model do that can save power and money? How many TOPS (tensor operations) are needed for a model to add value in your life and be worth your time? How does Scott use AI in his day to day to be more productive, without turning into an AI Grifter?
