Raspberry Pi CEO predicts generative AI moving to the edge
Raspberry Pi CEO Eben Upton says most generative AI tasks could move from the cloud to edge devices—like those running on Raspberry Pi hardware—by the end of the decade. Thanks to falling computing requirements for AI, Upton expects companies will rely less on central servers and more on processing data locally, citing big shifts already in visual AI. Edge processing promises better privacy and lower costs.
- Eben Upton expects rapid move of AI to edge devices
- Edge-based AI is more private and can be cheaper
- Raspberry Pi hardware already powers visual AI at the edge
- Generative AI now needs less compute than before
- Companies can outsource 'intelligence' without building computer teams
