Artificial Intelligence (AI) represents a groundbreaking opportunity in the field of electronics. By enhancing the performance of virtually any application, AI can serve as a key differentiator for products across diverse industries. As the world increasingly relies on intelligent machines, AI is set to play a pivotal role. People will turn to AI not only for basic information and complex analyses but also as tools that augment human creativity.
Despite its immense potential, AI is a complex and rapidly evolving engineering discipline, which can make mastering it a daunting task. Partnering with an experienced collaborator who understands the intricacies of selecting appropriate data sets, tools, software, and hardware components can significantly reduce development time and mitigate risks.
Effective AI implementation requires a balanced integration of hardware and software, along with the right machine learning (ML) algorithms.
