Artificial Intelligence: from cloud to dust?

Artificial Intelligence is experiencing a revolutionary paradigm shift, which will make it much more pervasive in all our activities and in our everyday lives. Several technology enhancements, unthinkable until a few years ago, are making the impossible possible. The topic is complex and extremely broad. Nevertheless, in this new "AI populated world" Artificial Intelligence is expanding in three different realms: the "Cloud", "Things" and "Dust", each with different laws, applications, and horizons. Until recently, Internet of Things devices have been mostly "dumb", made of sensors that collected data and were remotely operated from intelligent algorithms.
