How IBM’s Tiny Models Deliver Big ROI: A Guide to Build Fit-for-Purpose AI Models
In this episode of the AI Monetisation Podcast, Nicholas Fuller, IBM's Vice President of AI and Automation, joins Binny Mathews, Co-founder of ProjectPro, to explore how IBM is achieving real-world business impact with tiny, fit-for-purpose AI models.
Guest Background: A 23-year IBM veteran, Nicholas leads global efforts in LLM and agentic AI innovation at IBM Research. From mainframe code modernization to tiny time-series models, his team is redefining how enterprises build scalable, trustworthy AI products.
What’s Inside?
- Why fit-for-purpose models outperform massive LLMs for real-world ROI
- Inside IBM’s 5M parameter “tiny mixer” models for time-series forecasting
- How Guardian models ensure enterprise-grade safety and data privacy
- The future of agentic AI in IT operations and incident management
- What it takes to build industrial-grade AI benchmarks like ITBench
Key Takeaways
- Fit-for-purpose AI is more efficient and enterprise-ready than massive general-purpose models.
- Domain-specific models trained on smaller, high-quality datasets can outperform larger counterparts.
- Security, provenance, and explainability are critical for enterprise AI adoption.
- Internal co-creation and enterprise-specific benchmarks accelerate trust and deployment
- Hiring and retaining top AI talent requires purpose-driven work and deep academic partnerships.
This episode is essential listening for enterprise leaders, product builders, and AI practitioners seeking practical strategies to scale AI without compromising on safety, trust, or impact!
