The Optimizing Models for Production course prepares learners to make generative AI models more efficient, scalable, and cost-effective for real-world deployment. Learners begin with quantization, applying INT8 and INT4 precision reduction using tools like bitsandbytes while balancing accuracy and efficiency. Next, they explore inference optimization strategies, including batching, KV-cache management, and token-level computation scheduling to reduce latency in interactive applications.

The course also covers memory footprint reduction and adaptive batch sizing for dynamic workloads. In the final module, learners apply practical hardware optimization techniques such as GPU memory tuning, mixed precision inference, and profiling tools like nvidia-smi and PyTorch Profiler to identify bottlenecks. By the end, learners will be able to deliver optimized models across diverse hardware environments, supported by performance benchmarks and reproducible deployment pipelines.
