Your Siri Might Soon Not Need the Cloud Anymore
What’s This About: One of the next big moves for AI is the advancement of AI edge chips. These state-of-the-art chips, designed by leaders like Nvidia and IBM, will lessen both consumers’ and enterprises’ reliance on the cloud. As of right now, many technologies like Siri and other voice assistants can only operate with a cloud connection. But with AI chips, your smartphone, watch, or tablet will be able to make language translations, recommend songs, and complete many other complex tasks without a wireless or wifi connection.

As the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies becomes more apparent throughout the world, taking over increasingly more complex tasks, AI chipsets will take over large-scale data processing. They will perform all the necessary computations and store their models on the device, such as a phone or tablet. AI chips will be the key player in transitioning AI technologies from the cloud to the actual device, and they can create an entire new realm of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Consumer devices such as smartphones, tablets, wearables, and smart speakers rely on AI chips, along with enterprise market devices like robots, sensors, and cameras.
