Sasken has invested in Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly in advancing the large language Model (llM) to the edge. How will these initiatives contribute to enhancing operational efficiencies and meeting client requirements?

Sasken is investing in AI and GenAI use cases on edge for target verticals such as automotive. As a case in point, we are developing use cases that run on the edge, such as an automotive cockpit assistant that leverages LLM.
