Gregory's Server@6a62 @Natanox After re-reading that article and checking its sources, I didnβt see anything about including tracking in the Raspberry Pi either.
I went searching and found up the Japanese press release in case it had more information, and it sounds more like theyβre going to be building sensors and other devices that are designed to integrate with a Pi, and in turn Raspberry Pi is listed as a verified device or something.
@Fracture @6a62 There's another press release over here: https://www.sony.co.uk/presscentre/news/raspberry-pi-receives-strategic-investment-from-sony-semiconductor-solutions-corporation
It can't find text-based sources that specifically state it, however Sony says in their marketing video (in the extremetech article) that their technology is based on some kind of AI chip they produce which only works in tandem with "the cloud".
Also raspis ain't capable of proper AI calculations - those SoCs are way too weak without specialized hardware.
