Edge Computing

“You can have basically an inexpensive computer running, you know, what was a state of the art model year and a half ago, running it locally on a device with an open source model, which also means that the Chinese can have it, the Russians can have it, the Nort…”

“Not for zero applications, but for very few does it seem that you need such low latency that edge has a big benefit over, you know, the sort of, like, regional hyperscale model that we have today.”

“It's about twice as expensive to do that running, you know, the latest large AI models in the cloud versus at the edge.”

“So I agree that there will be cases where we will need those really low latencies, and that is going to require edge computing much closer to the user, so we have much shorter internet delays, network delays.”

“They think that edge computing is lower energy. Actually, edge computing is less energy efficient than computing in the data center.”

“Technical capabilities, so high resolution data, edge computing, real-time networking that we use to interact with consumers on what's happening in their home, we can look the other direction and we can see what the grid is doing in real time from the edge.”

“And I think what you're going to start to see is you're going to start to see those technologies show up at the edge. You're going to start to see a much more intelligent, interactive ecosystem along the lines of IOT. And I think ultimately what that looks lik…”

“It's starting with cars and drones, and it will proliferate to lots of other devices in the not too distant future.”

“Important information will still get stored in a centralized cloud, but much of the processing in this new world will move out to the edge, and that's where the most important decisions will get made at the edge.”
