Deploying quantized models on Amazon SageMaker AI with Unsloth

|

| Amazon Web Services
Artificial Intelligence This post was co-written with Daniel Han and Michael Han from Unsloth.

Abstract Food systems face multi-dimensional pressures and require integrated assessments of environmental, social, health and economic dimensions to inform their transformation. Although economic equilibrium models and integrated assessment models have been instrumental in this context, future decision-making requires more diverse and inclusive participatory processes.
