Bringing Cost-Effective, On-Device AI to Home Appliances - Sparse Weights and Interactions Negate GPUs and Cloud Computing
GPU silicon and cloud computing infrastructure are too costly for mass markets devices like refrigerators and washers. By deploying compute resources only to the necessary parts of AI inference, Sparse AI allows product designers to practically incorporate new AI features like natural voice interfaces into their consumer offerings without breaking the bank or electric bill surprises.

Mobile APP Development with React Native
This month, Bob continues his series on mobile app development from an embedded designer's perspective. He programs a React Native app and he offers guidelines for picking a tutorial for React Native. He further explores how it handles concurrency and asynchronous programming. Bob expected a few nuances during the process but to say there were more than a few would be an understatement.
