In a recent IEEE Spectrum article, learn how engineers are taking machine learning to the smallest microprocessors, while facing challenges in energy consumption, compressing neural networks, and privacy practices. #tinyML #neuralnetworks #machinelearning

IN FEBRUARY, a group of researchers from Google, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Samsung, and half a dozen universities will gather in San Jose, Calif., to discuss the challenge of bringing machine learning to the farthest edge of the network, specifically microprocessors running on sensors or other battery-powered devices.

Boston Dynamics’ creation is starting to sniff out its role in the workforce: as a helpful canine that still sometimes needs you to hold its paw.

The founder of robot maker Boston Dynamics, Marc Raibert, is moving from CEO to chairman as the company prepares for a “new stage of growth.” The firm, well-known for its robotic creations, has been researching and developing its technology for decades, and it started leasing its first commercial robot, Spot, in 2019.

Machines, especially through the power of AI, will surpass humans in Intelligence, effectiveness, and functionality.

Though there are some areas where humans will hold the dominance; mostly areas that require feeling and emotion.

But overall, machines will have capabilities that far surpass even the most Intelligent of humans.
