Intel, Udacity Team Up to Train Edge AI Developers - EE Times India

Intel is sponsoring an online course to help address the shortage of AIoT developers... Amid rapid growth in AI deployments across a variety of industry sectors, Intel has decided to address the skills shortage in AI-savvy developers by partnering with online technology learning platform Udacity to offer a course in edge AI for developers. "Historically, students have learned how to build and deploy deep learning models for the cloud. With Udacity, we are training AI developers to go where the data is generated in the physical world: the edge," said Jonathan Ballon, Intel vice president and general manager, Internet of Things Group. "Optimizing direct deployment of models on edge devices requires knowledge of unique constraints like power, network bandwidth and latency, varying compute architectures and more. The skills this course delivers will allow developers -- and companies that hire them, to implement learnings on real-world applications across a variety of fields."
