Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is now implemented in smartphones, automobiles, drones, and robots. Edge AI is the combination of edge computing and artificial intelligence. Edge AI is the implementation of AI applications in devices throughout the physical world. In this technique, the computation of AI is done near the user at the edge of the network, close to where the data is located, rather than centrally in a cloud computing facility or private data centers. Edge AI offers a way to process data faster than cloud processing. The release of low-power and high-computing processors has led to integrating AI algorithms into devices. Developing dedicated AI processors for edge devices has resulted in AI inference performed on devices rather than the cloud platform.
