X. SLMs can already match or beat 30โ€“70B LLMs on task-specific reasoning 
โ†’ From Phi-3 to DeepSeek Distill, we now have 2โ€“9B models outperforming legacy LLMs with 10โ€“70ร— faster inference.

X. Most agents just run repetitive, scoped tasks 
โ†’ Parsing. Routing. Tool calls. Summaries. You donโ€™t need an all-knowing LLM โ€” you need a fast, fine-tuned SLM that gets the job done.

X. LLMs are economically unsustainable at scale 
โ†’ They dominate cloud costs and energy use. SLMs offer massive savings in latency, memory, and operational overhead.

X. SLMs run on edge and consumer devices 
โ†’ Tools like ChatRTX show real-time agents can live on laptops or embedded systems โ€” without phoning home to a GPU cluster.

X. Heterogeneous agent stacks are the path forward 
โ†’ Use LLMsย sparinglyย for general reasoning. Let SLMs handle XX% of workflows. More modular. More efficient. More robust.

X. SLMs are easier to fine-tune and align 
โ†’ Lower hallucination risk, tighter output control, and better format consistency. Perfect for tool-driven agent environments.

More in the comments and the paper below to download โ€” but Iโ€™ll say this now:
This paper might age like gold for every team trying to ship serious agents in production.
