Connect | Virginia // Debate: Will AI inference finally make edge mainstream?

As the market increasingly shifts toward AI inference, companies are building edge infrastructure to bring compute power closer to where data is generated and consumed. Edge data centers also address data sovereignty and privacy requirements by processing information locally.

Given the growing importance of edge, this debate will discuss how edge is evolving and how its deployment will shape the future of the industry, including:

• The most proven use cases of edge beyond AI
• How do edge strategies differ between rural and urban areas?
• How edge computing is evolving to meet the demands of AI inference and low-latency applications
• The future of edge, such as underwater or moon based edge networks
