AbstractFoundation models are general-purpose technologies that power a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) applications, including intelligent chatbots, voice assistants, cyber threat detection systems, and autonomous robots. These models can also be adapted to new tasks via fine-tuning techniques. However, the local deployment of foundation models on consumer devices is challenging due to the models’ large size and high computational demands. The models also face significant security risks, suc
