ArXi:2410.20791v3 Announce Type: replace-cross The rapid expansion of foundation models (FMs), such as large language models (LLMs), has given rise to FMware, software systems that integrate FM(s) as core components. While building nstration-level FMware is relatively straightforward, transitioning to production-ready systems presents numerous challenges, including reliability, high implementation costs, scalability, and compliance with privacy regulations.
