Scaling

noun

1.Scaling means making an AI model bigger and more powerful by feeding it more data and computing muscle. Think of it like adding more ovens to a bakery - you get more output, but you also need more flour, more space, and more electricity. It's why ByteDance and others are splashing billions on mega data centres.
