AI Usage

AI & large language models have created a large disturbance in the digital space.

While AI has proven to be an effective tool for businesses and developers alike, it is prone to making inconsistent design choices, and generating faulty code.

A large problem is that sometimes AI generated code & designs seem okay at first glance, but fail under further testing.

AI Usage

thundr does not use large language models to generate code or designs for your thundr site.

Instead, we use an industry leading component library which is fast, modern and battle tested.

All images and text are gathered from your existing site, and before adding it to your thundr site, we run portions of it through a small AI language model.

This allows the creation process to be faster, cheaper and much much more environmentally responsible.

AI is Overkill

Why does your website creation algorithm need to also be able to recite the complete works of Shakespeare? Or list every inhabited location on Earth? By creating a custom solution, we have been able to produce more taylored results that effectively meet the high quality standards that thundr is known for.

For comparison, the algorithm thundr uses to classify and label your existing website's content is 5 times faster at processing text and 10 times faster at processing images compared to leading large scale AI solutions. It is also about 2,100 times more energy efficient. And by using a small language model to revise text content (instead of something like OpenAI's GPT-4), thundr ends up being 900 times more energy efficient.

While AI is usually a solution, it is rarely the best solution.
