The past is unchangeable; now we can only see if Appen will make the right moves going forward.

A recent news: Apple Intelligence combines small language models (SLMs) for on-device use and LLMs hosted in Apple's cloud. This approach aims to offer personalised AI capabilities on devices while handling complex tasks via the cloud, enhancing privacy and security standards in AI.

In my view, this will become a trend, with some companies developing their own Small Language Models (SLMs) for local or private use. More complex tasks will still utilise cloud-based LLMs. Essentially, these SLMs are optimised versions of LLMs, which aligns perfectly with what Apple's LLM platform aims to achieve. Additionally, Appen holds a minority interest in Reka AI, further highlighting the industry's move towards tailored and efficient language model solutions.
