# Introduction

Project Ailey is a decentralized AI execution environment powered by a Small Language Model (SLM). It addresses key limitations of centralized LLM systems, such as data monopolies, high cloud costs, and limited personalization. Ailey runs in real time directly on the user’s device, continuously learning from individual language patterns, emotions, and daily habits to deliver deeply personalized AI experiences.
