AI Model

An AI Model is a mathematical algorithm trained on a dataset to perform specific tasks like classification, prediction, or text generation. It represents the saved states of a neural network (the weights and biases) after training, which can be deployed to run inference on new, unseen data.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an algorithm and a model?

An algorithm is the set of rules (like a formula). A model is the specific output generated when an algorithm is trained on actual data.

How are models deployed?

Models are hosted on servers and accessed via APIs, or run locally on devices using lightweight formats like GGUF or ONNX.
