Can AI models talk to each other across different platforms?
Imagine you're using a smart assistant app on your phone, but you want it to work seamlessly with another app on your tablet. Right now, they can't understand each other because they're built on different tech platforms.
ONNX acts like a universal translator for AI models, allowing them to communicate and work together across various apps and devices, just like you want your phone and tablet apps to cooperate.
Example
A smart assistant on your phone (using ONNX) can now understand commands from a smart home app on your tablet.
Remember this
ONNX is the key to making AI models from different platforms work together smoothly.
