The past few years have been a blast for artificial intelligence, with large language models (LLMs) stunning everyone with their capabilities and powering everything from chatbots to code assistants. However, not all applications demand the massive size and complexity of LLMs, the computational power required makes them impractical for many use cases. This is why Small Language Models (SLMs) entered the scene to make powerful AI models more accessible by shrinking in size.
In this article we went through what SLMs are, how they are made small, their benefits and limitations, real-world use cases, and how they can be used on mobile and desktop devices. https://huggingface.co/blog/jjokah/small-language-model

π Why do I love it? Because it facilitates teaching and learning!
Over the past few months I've engaged with (no joke) thousands of students based on SmolLM.
- People have inferred, fine-tuned, aligned, and evaluated this smol model. - People used they're own machines and they've used free tools like colab, kaggle, and spaces. - People tackled use cases in their job, for fun, in their own language, and with their friends.
π£ Teachers and Students! Here's a handy quiz app if you're preparing your own study material.
TLDR, It's a quiz that uses a dataset to make questions and save answers
Here's how it works:
- make a dataset of multiple choice questions - duplicate the space add set the dataset repo - log in and do the quiz - submit the questions to create a new dataset
I made this to get ready for the agents course, but I hope it's useful for you projects too!
