The automotive industry has experienced rapid advancements due to the integration of edge computing and artificial intelligence (AI) in recent years. As vehicles continue developing self-driving capabilities, these technologies have become increasingly critical for effective decision-making and real-time reactions.
Nvidia, a leading technology company, recently announced a significant increase in earnings, with their revenue doubling due to the high demand for its AI chips that power new machine learning applications; teach and develop new artificial intelligence models and neural networks; and guide low-latency, real-time edge-of-network functions like Tesla's autonomous driving feature. As AI evolves, it's transforming the business landscape, touching industries like manufacturing, automotive, insurance, medicine, hospitality and even fast food.
Technology investments and initiatives play a vital role in driving business success, but innovation for its own sake is likely to be ineffective—even costly. It is crucial for tech leaders to find ways to measure the value and impact of technology investments on overall business goals. This requires a thoughtful approach that goes beyond traditional metrics.
The food and beverage industry is constantly evolving, driven by shifting consumer behaviors, technological advancements, and increasingly stringent regulations.

The trucking industry is an incredibly essential sector that impacts almost every other enterprise. Regardless of the positives that it brings to our businesses and society, there are also major concerns, such as the number of harmful emissions and pollutants it generates. According to the Environmental Defense Fund, delivery trucks and trailers compose around 4% of vehicles in the U.S. but create close to half of nitrogen oxide emissions and almost 60% of fine vehicle particulates.
The global artificial intelligence (AI) market is expected to reach the trillion-dollar mark by 2030, and just as it has done with the global automotive industry, Tesla looks set to absorb a considerable amount of market share. This is all thanks to Dojo, the supercomputer set to drive the most sophisticated (and fastest) AI training machine to date.
The technical definition of a smart city—an urban area in which technology and sensors are used to collect data for resource management—may not sound all that exciting to the average citizen. While the “nuts and bolts” technology behind smart cities, such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, is becoming better understood, what many people may not realize is just how big an impact combined smart city technologies could have on the ways we live and work in the coming years.
