AI without internet or GPU... Persona AI, 'CES 2025' success

Registration Date : 2025.01.13

PERSONA AI, an artificial intelligence company, announced on the 13th that it successfully completed the CES 2025 exhibition held in Las Vegas, USA for four days from January 7th to 10th.


PERSONA AI set up an exhibition hall under the slogan 'NO INTERNET, NO GPU' in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), where major AI companies are located, and prepared advanced AI services that can be implemented offline without GPUs. With just a simple prompt input, it was possible to experience various AI technologies such as image and video creation, document creation and summary, and voice recognition. The Persona AI booth was crowded with visitors as they showed great interest in the fact that AI can operate without the Internet and GPU. In particular, sLLM, STT(speech to text), and generative AI were smoothly implemented and shined in the CES site where the network environment was poor.


As Kinsey Fabrizio, the president of the Consumer Technology Association(CTA), mentioned PERSONA AI as a company to watch, much attention was also focused on its core technology, 'SONA Edge sLLM'. The SONA Edge sLLM, which became the basis for the CES 2025 Innovation Award, operates efficiently on various devices and systems, from smartphones and PCs to smart homes and IoT. It can increase performance by up to 20% through fine tuning for each user, enabling a design optimized for service purposes.


Also, the AI ​​PC born from collaboration with TG Sambo was exhibited. Equipped with PERSONA AI's generative AI technology, this product targets the B2B and B2G markets with a focus on work efficiency and security. Inquiries from corporate visitors continued about the AI ​​PC that can be used immediately for actual work.


Yoo Seung-jae, CEO of PERSONA AI, said, “Through CES, we were able to directly introduce PERSONA AI’s unique technology to domestic and international visitors,” and added, “We will use the CES 2025 Innovation Award and exhibition as an opportunity to quickly advance into the on-device AI market based on our original technology.”
