Domain-Specific Small Language Models (Manning) Manning Publications announced 'Domain-Specific Small Language Models' by Guglielmo Iozzia, a book teaching developers to build generative AI models optimized for specific fields using commodity hardware. The book covers fine-tuning, quantization, and deployment on devices like laptops and smartphones, targeting cost- or hardware-constrained environments. | When you need a language model to respond accurately and quickly about a specific field of knowledge, the sprawling capacity of a LLM may hurt more than it helps. In this book Guglielmo Iozzia teaches how to build generative AI models optimized for specific fields. Perfect for cost- or hardware-constrained environments, Small Language Models SLMs train on domain specific data for high-quality results in specific tasks. In this book you’ll develop SLMs that can generate everything from Python code to protein structures and antibody sequences, all on commodity hardware.
