Summary

Le choix entre un modèle open source et un modèle propriétaire pour des projets d’IA dépend de divers facteurs, notamment les performances requises, la base de connaissances, le volume d’utilisation et la latence. Les modèles propriétaires, comme GPT-4, offrent souvent de meilleures performances pour des tâches complexes, tandis que les modèles open source peuvent être plus économiques pour un usage intensif. Les entreprises doivent évaluer leurs besoins spécifiques, notamment en matière de traitement de documents longs et d’infrastructure requise. Bien que les modèles open source soient rapides et performants, leur mise en œuvre nécessite un investissement initial conséquent. Une stratégie d’IA générative doit être soigneusement planifiée et régulièrement évaluée pour garantir son efficacité.
