SUMMARY:Leaving the hyperscalers without leaving the game: building our AI
  solutions with open source models - Thibault Milan

DESCRIPTION:At Paperjam\, we're facing a defining choice. Build our future
  AI solutions on open source models instead of handing everything over to 
 the hyperscalers. This talk isn't a mission-accomplished retrospective. It
 's a real-time logbook\, written as we make the decisions.\n\nWhy make thi
 s choice now? What are the real trade-offs: data sovereignty\, costs\, dep
 endence versus control\, the maturity of open models against the concrete 
 needs of a B2B media company?\n\nWe'll share the decision framework we're 
 building right now. When open source makes sense\, when it doesn't yet\, a
 nd the pitfalls we see coming before we've even hit them (infrastructure\,
  maintenance\, in-house skills).\n\nThe goal is to give organizations aski
 ng the same question an honest starting point. Not a success demo\, but a 
 map of the decisions to make and the questions to ask before diving in.\n
 \nA talk for any organization that sees open source AI not as an ideologic
 al totem\, but as a strategic choice to own.
