Artificial intelligence (AI) once seemed like a figment of science fiction, but as technology has evolved, many new and exciting applications have arisen. From national security to finance, healthcare, and beyond, AI has the capacity to improve the quality and quantity of data analytics and reduce costs. As the ubiquity of AI technology continues to grow, we see it moving closer to the edge, requiring specialized hardware to ensure that AI-enabled devices can operate and process data efficiently.
What is AI at the Edge?
AI at the edge relies on edge computing – a distributed network of computing devices that exist near the source of data, rather than in a data center. This includes Internet of Things (IoT) devices that could be sensors and smart devices that reside within a home, business, or other location. Because the Internet is a global network, the edge could exist anywhere.
Compared to AI algorithms that run inside of a data center, edge AI can offer a number of important benefits that include:
- Reduced latency since data is processed locally.
- Increased data security since data is processed at the edge and only results are transmitted , reducing the risk of a breach or interception.
- Improved reliability since the AI can run even if connection to a data center goes down.
- Real-time insights since data is processed locally instead of in a distant data center.
