# Decentralized AI inference
# Types of inference

## Overview

Inference in the context of decentralized AI refers to using a trained model to draw conclusions about new data.
It's possible for canister smart contracts to run inference in a number of ways depending on the decentralization and performance requirements.

Canisters can utilize inference run on-chain, on-device, or through HTTPS outcalls.

## Inference on-chain
## Inference onchain

Currently, ICP supports on-chain inference of small models using AI libraries such as [Sonos Tract](https://github.com/sonos/tract) that compile to WebAssembly.
Check out the [image classification example](/docs/current/developer-docs/ai/ai-on-chain) to learn how it works.

## Inference on-device

An alternative to running the model on-chain would be to download the model from a canister, then run the inference on the local device. If the user trusts their own device, then they can trust that the inference ran correctly.
An alternative to running the model onchain would be to download the model from a canister, then run the inference on the local device. If the user trusts their own device, then they can trust that the inference ran correctly.

A disadvantage of this workflow is that the model needs to be downloaded to the user's device, resulting in less confidentiality of the model and decreased user experience due to increased latency.

ICP supports this workflow for most existing models because a smart contract on ICP can store models up to 400GiB.
