Trend On-device AI opens an era of hyper-personalisation

Summary

The report sees on-device AI, which runs computation on end-user devices such as smartphones, leading a new wave of innovation beyond the limits of cloud-based AI. Dedicated AI chips integrated into phone and PC processors, together with model compression, now allow capable models to run on small devices with little memory. Because it works without a network connection, on-device AI sharply improves response speed and reliability for services such as autonomous driving and real-time medicine. Processing data inside the device lowers the risk of transmission or exposure, protecting sensitive information such as habits and biometric data. As AI becomes built into every IoT and edge device, user experiences are expected to become thoroughly personalised, creating new markets such as precision healthcare.
