Participants shared experiences with running large language models locally, discussed the benefits of model distillation for practical applications, and explored how Open Web UI is revolutionizing the way we build AI-powered applications. The session highlighted a growing trend toward more efficient, customizable AI solutions that can run on consumer hardware while maintaining enterprise-grade capabilities.
