AI inference split between server and client proposed to cut costs

A Reddit user proposed an idea for semi-edge inference, suggesting that proprietary machine learning models could be split between server and client devices. This approach aims to reduce the cost and processing load on data centers by offloading some computation to client hardware. The user envisions training separate client and server models that communicate via tensors or latent representations, potentially leading to standardized protocols and more flexible model architectures. AI

IMPACT This concept could potentially reduce operational costs for AI services by distributing computation.

    Semi Edge Inference Idea [D]

    <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Today the most important factor in AI is cost. My idea is to split ML models inference (closed ones, proprietary) across server and edge computing on clients, and I would like to hear what do you think about this thing.</p> <p>For example some of…
