The Intelligent IoT: AI in the Connected Revolution
IoT devices are all around us, and will communicate 400 zettabytes of data (that’s 4GB with 22 zeros after) by the end of 2018, but an AI component is needed to make sense of all this data – otherwise we end up with nothing more than a mountain of ones and zeros.
The increase in processing power brought by AI, combined with this data, will finally allow connected technology to reach its full potential. This is especially important given the shrinking size of modules, which will allow devices to proliferate and in turn feed more data back to AI. By including Artificial Intelligence within networks, numerous problems facing businesses today can be solved, and IoT and AI can grow stronger together, for our benefit.
Multi-network SIMs have been around for years, but more advanced switching methods need more advanced computing. Multi-IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) connectivity allows the SIM to switch to an entirely different network infrastructure, so data is not routed back through a ‘single point of failure’ at the top.
