Abstract
As artificial intelligence rapidly evolves beyond centralized cloud computing, Edge AI and Physical AI are reshaping how intelligent systems interact with the real world. This presentation explores the emerging computing architectures driving this transformation, including Liquid AI models, Compute-in-Memory (CIM), and multi-layered 3D chip integration, with a focus on improving energy efficiency, reducing latency, and enabling real-time autonomous applications. It further examines the strategic opportunities and business models emerging from distributed AI infrastructure, while highlighting the growing importance of sustainable energy. Finally, the presentation introduces Alpha Ring's fusion energy vision and its potential to provide clean, safe, abundant, and accessible power for the next generation of Edge and Physical AI systems.
