About the Session
LLM providers are rapidly releasing more capable models but rising usage leads to increasing costs.

Regulatory, sovereignty, geopolitical considerations and self-hosting constraints add complexity to the model selection decision. This session explores these challenges and introduces a practical framework for making model decisions.
