How Tiny AI Helpers Turn Massive Text into Fast Answers

Ever wondered how a computer can read millions of articles and instantly pull out the facts you need? Scientists have created a clever system called Falconer that lets a powerful language model act like a master planner, while tiny “proxy” models do the heavy lifting. Think of it like a chef (the big model) designing a recipe, then handing the chopping and stirring to fast‑working kitchen assistants. These assistants learn from the chef’s instructions, so they can quickly label topics or pick out key sentences without the huge cost of running the full‑size AI every time. The result? The same high‑quality answers you’d get from the biggest models, but up to 20 times faster and at a fraction of the price. **This breakthro…
