There's no mention of SLMs or LLMs, though.
> This work represents a compelling real-world demonstration of “tiny AI” — highly specialised, minimal-footprint neural networks
FPGAs for Neural Networks have been s thing since before the LLM era.
Huh? The first paragraph literally says they are using LLMs
> [ GENEVA, SWITZERLAND — March 28, 2026 ] — CERN is using extremely small, custom large language models physically burned into silicon chips to perform real-time filtering of the enormous data generated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
the site might have fixed it, to me it says "artificial intelligence" instead of LLM, still bad but not" steaming pile of poo on you bank statement" bad
They changed it from AI to LLM then back to AI: https://theopenreader.org/index.php?title=Journalism:CERN_Us... and https://theopenreader.org/index.php?title=Journalism%3ACERN_...
