The journey of Ai has experienced a fascinating shift in a veritably short time. We have witnessed the original explosion of titans like OpenAI’s Chat GPT, boasting billions of parameters and capabilities. These large language models (LLMs) captured the imagination with their capability to deliver quality text, voice, languages and answer complex questions quickly.

The sheer scale of these billion funded LLMs have presented many challenges in terms of computational and training costs plus the environmental impact of all the processing required to run the engine rooms of Ai. To try and reduce this impact, a new vein of Ai automation bots and models have surfaced with smaller and more focused versions. Also known as Narrow Ai for one approach and Source Grounded Ai for another.

Narrow Ai performs dedicated tasks like voice recognition or image analysis and is the most recognised and used type of Ai people encounter in their daily lives. Some real-world examples include voice assistants like Siri and Google Assistant plus the subtle and effective recommendation algorithms used by Amazon & Netflix. It is even used to 'mind power' Tesla vehicles.

This reduction in Ai size does not equate to a drop in quality or capability. These models are much better at targeting exact processes at a reduced cost. Narrow/Source Grounded Ai's even occasionally compete with their larger counterparts as the targeted focus they deliver can be a more superior performance.

Narrow Ai bot development is where Streamline is focused, as we write this late in 2024.

This shift toward lower, more effective Ai models signifies a part change in focus. The emphasis is no longer solely on raw power but also on practicality, resourcefulness and availability. Chat GPT 4.0 Mini and newer versions to come make this a perfect case in point.

These important yet lower to run cost models help democratise Ai by lowering the bar to entry for all. From entrepreneurs, coders, marketers, process people, enterprise software inventors and small and medium businesses needing to get on board the Ai train. They pave the way for the deployment of Ai bots built and tailored exactly to a businesses needs and processes.

These Narrow Ai models also give the foundation for businesses or organisations like you to work with a chosen Ai Agency, like us here at Streamline. To be able to sit down and talk through your Ai needs, wants and goals, with careful planning, we proceed to design and build a bespoke solution by finely-tuning (and ongoing managing) your own custom Ai bots.

Although large models will continue to play a vital part in a company’s Ai tools mix, like Co Pilot and Chat GPT, the future of business AI is increasingly being driven by custom built Narrow Ai models.

We are feverishly working away at designing and building a number of out of the gate Ai bots for businesses to implement. Some are off the shelf plug and go and some are base lines for bespoke adaptation, to your exact needs. As a taste of what we have ready now as well as near to completion, please view our list below…

We look at Ai as a much-needed supporting tool vs a takeover of human work and effort. We see it supporting your team not replacing them. This is our Human First approach. We think the mood from people in all walks of life plus legislation will eventually head this way and we want to be on the right side of this automation era.

Either way, there is no getting away from it, Ai will revolutionise your business or orgnisation like never before. Below are a sample of the benefits Ai will bring.

As we stated at the beginning of this page, businesses that fail to embrace this transformative technology are under threat from being left behind. This is not a sales scare tactic, it is just reality. We all know it is here now and we want to help you streamline your sales and processes, to make you more efficient, reduce repetitive tasks and support your human team to deliver excellence as a standard.

Ai obviously comes with its challenges that businesses must precisely navigate, from ethical considerations to the impact on how you operate. The key part is recognising the need for an Ai Automation Agency partner to work with. Welcome to Streamline Ai. Your Ai Automation Agency.
