@Fracture @6a62 There's another press release over here: sony.co.uk/presscentre/news/ra

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.

@Fracture @6a62 This means the chip will, most likely, work for image recognition to piece together metadata which then in turn can be processed either locally or, and that's the way worse variant, via the Sony cloud.

@Natanox @Fracture that sounds about right to me, but none of that requires or suggests proprietary Sony hardware in future Pi products

it also doesn’t suggest that Pi’s are going to start send metadata to Sony without your permission either, unless you fancy building some IoT garbage on their cloud platform

@Natanox where does it say "via the Sony cloud"?
