“There are already AI projects designing the firmware and software for that infrastructure as well as robot installers connected to AI bots in the cloud to assist with any unforeseen situation.”
Where?
I just left Intel and it’s not happening there, or at it’s newly acquired sub Altera.
And I know for a fact it’s not happening at Cisco, the worlds largest network equipment manufacturer.
So, just where is this happening? In your imagination?
IBM, Qualcom and a few dozen small companies with big company investment and interest in what they are developing.
A ton of “firmware” began as software and moved from software to software-on-a-chip (firmware).
AI is already writing code, software, and increasingly doing it as expert as the experts (Google, IBM, Microsoft and many others). Cicso has AI code doing expert services analyzing complex networks, identifying problems, “computing” solutions and relieving human network resources. It will not be a massive leap in hardware before that AI (improved by then) is embedded in the CISCO network equipment itself, relieving the humans that now run it as “service”.
By mid-decade hence some top firms will be announcing major systems (in “smart devices” most likely) where AI figured out the complex connections of “multiple firmware components on a chip”. The chips will not only be designed by AI they will incorporate AI and some aspect of continual “machine learning” within them.
