IBM's new Granite 4.0 Nano model challenges a foundational assumption of the AI industry: that smaller models must sacrifice capability for efficiency. By packing sophisticated reasoning into a system tiny enough to run on smartphones and edge devices, the company is potentially reshaping where artificial intelligence happens—moving computation away from distant data centers and closer to users, with profound implications for privacy, latency, and who controls the AI infrastructure of the future.
