Hugging Face and Intel – Driving Towards Practical, Faster, Democratized and Ethical AI solutions.

Transformer models are the powerful neural networks that have become the standard for delivering advanced performance behind these innovations. But there is a challenge: Training these deep learning models at scale and doing inference on them requires a large amount of computing power. This can make the process time-consuming, complex, and costly.

Today we will talk about all kinds of issues around accessible, production level AI solutions. We also talk about ethical questions around AI usage and why open, democratized AI solutions are important.
