Arjun Kannan, co-founder of ResiDesk, is bringing a fresh perspective to real estate's age-old problems. With a background in leveraging big data at BlackRock and Climb Credit, Arjun is now applying his expertise to the chaotic world of property management. At ResiDesk, he's harnessing the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) - AI systems that can understand and generate human-like text - to tackle industry-wide headaches. It's a deceptively simple approach: use cutting-edge AI to handle tasks like decoding leases, predicting maintenance issues, and mediating disputes. But don't let the simplicity fool you. This is deep tech aimed at revolutionizing an industry where AI usually means basic chatbots or listing generators. By applying LLMs to tasks traditionally requiring human judgment, Arjun and his team are redefining what's possible in property management. It's not just innovative; it's potentially game-changing, as shown by ResiDesk’s success with many of the top 50 real estate managers and its reach of over 1 million residents. As we dive into ResiDesk's technology, you'll see why this ambitious project could transform the roles of property managers and the experiences of tenants alike. Arjun's approach isn't about incremental improvements - it's about reimagining the entire industry from the ground up. A New Era for Property Management: Where AI Meets Human Expertise The real estate and property management sector has been burdened by inefficiencies in communication and high levels of tenant dissatisfaction for a long time. These challenges go beyond operational headaches; they hinder the ability to build trust, which is crucial in property management. Traditionally, these issues have been addressed through manual processes, but as demand grows, it's clear that these old methods are no longer enough. This is where applied Large Language Models (LLMs) come in, a technological shift that promises to transform how property managers interact with residents. These AI systems are more than just tools for efficiency, they are enablers of deeper, more personalized human connections. The Stakes: Why Property Management Must Evolve or Fall Behind Property managers face persistent challenges in the form of communication barriers, operational inefficiencies, and a lack of actionable data on resident needs. These problems create friction in everyday operations, leading to frustrated tenants and missed opportunities for improving the living experience. But the consequences are more than just logistical. When communication breaks down, trust is eroded and, in an industry that thrives on relationships, this can be catastrophic. The traditional tools at a property manager’s disposal are increasingly inadequate, underscoring the urgent need for innovation. Arjun Kannan and ResiDesk: Pioneering the Future of Property Management Arjun Kannan and his co-founders recognized the potential of AI to address these deep-seated issues in real estate. With a background in applying AI in practical ways from his time in education and financial technology, Kannan brought a fresh perspective to property management by creating ResiDesk—a platform designed to revolutionize the industry through advanced AI, particularly by applying LLMs. ResiDesk is more than just a prop-tech innovation; it’s a movement toward a new way of managing properties, serving over 1 million residents across 40+ states in the US. With Kannan’s dedicated leadership, ResiDesk is setting a new standard for how AI can enhance—not replace—human interaction in property management. How Applied LLMs, AI Agents, and Vector Databases Redefine Property Management At the heart of ResiDesk’s success is its application of LLMs. Finely tuned to understand the specific language and context of property management, these AI systems aren’t generic; they’re designed to handle the complexities of lease agreements, maintenance requests, and resident concerns with both precision and empathy. AI Agents with a Mixture of Experts ResiDesk employs ax agents, sophisticated AI entities that utilize a mixture of experts to manage the complex tasks inherent to property management. These agents are designed to adapt and learn, and continuously improve their performance by integrating new data and refining their approach based on the specific needs of each property. Here’s how a typical ax agent might function: This approach ensures that the AI isn’t just automating tasks; it’s making informed decisions that enhance the overall property management experience. Vector Databases for Contextual Insights In addition to AI agents, ResiDesk integrates vector databases to manage and retrieve property-related information. This allows the platform to conduct semantic searches across unstructured data, providing property managers with instant access to relevant insights and enabling more informed decision-making. For example, here’s how vectorization might work: This ability to quickly access and interpret data is crucial for making decisions that enhance resident satisfaction and streamline operations. The Impact: Measurable Success Through AI-Enhanced Human Collaboration The results of ResiDesk’s AI-enhanced platform are clear: 30% of residents opt out when interacting with AI alone.


40% increase in satisfaction when AI is combined with human interaction.


Conversations go 3 times deeper into what truly matters.


Residents are 5-6 times more likely to share their needs and preferences. These outcomes highlight a critical insight: AI, when applied thoughtfully, doesn’t just improve efficiency—it enriches the quality of human interaction, enabling property managers to build stronger relationships and greater trust with their residents. The Future of Real Estate: AI as a Catalyst for Human-Centered Management ResiDesk and Arjun are proof that the future of property management is not about cold automation—it’s about AI that supports and enhances human empathy. This model of applied AI offers a blueprint for other industries where trust and relationships are key, from healthcare to education. As ResiDesk has shown, AI has the power to transform industries by making human interactions richer, more responsive, and, ultimately, more effective. Arjun and ResiDesk’s innovation isn’t just in the technology; it’s the way they’ve built a future where AI is a partner in creating more meaningful and impactful human experiences. Arjun Kannan, co-founder of ResiDesk, is bringing a fresh perspective to real estate's age-old problems. With a background in leveraging big data at BlackRock and Climb Credit, Arjun is now applying his expertise to the chaotic world of property management. At ResiDesk , he's harnessing the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) - AI systems that can understand and generate human-like text - to tackle industry-wide headaches. It's a deceptively simple approach: use cutting-edge AI to handle tasks like decoding leases, predicting maintenance issues, and mediating disputes. Arjun Arjun ResiDesk ResiDesk But don't let the simplicity fool you. This is deep tech aimed at revolutionizing an industry where AI usually means basic chatbots or listing generators. By applying LLMs to tasks traditionally requiring human judgment, Arjun and his team are redefining what's possible in property management. It's not just innovative; it's potentially game-changing, as shown by ResiDesk’s success with many of the top 50 real estate managers and its reach of over 1 million residents. As we dive into ResiDesk's technology, you'll see why this ambitious project could transform the roles of property managers and the experiences of tenants alike. Arjun's approach isn't about incremental improvements - it's about reimagining the entire industry from the ground up. top 50 real estate managers top 50 real estate managers A New Era for Property Management: Where AI Meets Human Expertise A New Era for Property Management: Where AI Meets Human Expertise The real estate and property management sector has been burdened by inefficiencies in communication and high levels of tenant dissatisfaction for a long time. These challenges go beyond operational headaches; they hinder the ability to build trust, which is crucial in property management. Traditionally, these issues have been addressed through manual processes, but as demand grows, it's clear that these old methods are no longer enough. real estate and property management sector has been burdened by inefficiencies in communication and high levels of tenant dissatisfaction real estate and property management sector has been burdened by inefficiencies in communication and high levels of tenant dissatisfaction This is where applied Large Language Models (LLMs) come in, a technological shift that promises to transform how property managers interact with residents. These AI systems are more than just tools for efficiency, they are enablers of deeper, more personalized human connections. The Stakes: Why Property Management Must Evolve or Fall Behind The Stakes: Why Property Management Must Evolve or Fall Behind Property managers face persistent challenges in the form of communication barriers, operational inefficiencies, and a lack of actionable data on resident needs. These problems create friction in everyday operations, leading to frustrated tenants and missed opportunities for improving the living experience. But the consequences are more than just logistical. When communication breaks down, trust is eroded and, in an industry that thrives on relationships, this can be catastrophic. The traditional tools at a property manager’s disposal are increasingly inadequate, underscoring the urgent need for innovation. Arjun Kannan and ResiDesk: Pioneering the Future of Property Management Arjun Kannan and ResiDesk: Pioneering the Future of Property Management Arjun Kannan and his co-founders recognized the potential of AI to address these deep-seated issues in real estate. With a background in applying AI in practical ways from his time in education and financial technology , Kannan brought a fresh perspective to property management by creating ResiDesk—a platform designed to revolutionize the industry through advanced AI, particularly by applying LLMs. background in applying AI in practical ways from his time in education and financial technology background in applying AI in practical ways from his time in education and financial technology ResiDesk is more than just a prop-tech innovation; it’s a movement toward a new way of managing properties, serving over 1 million residents across 40+ states in the US. With Kannan’s dedicated leadership, ResiDesk is setting a new standard for how AI can enhance—not replace—human interaction in property management. How Applied LLMs, AI Agents, and Vector Databases Redefine Property Management How Applied LLMs, AI Agents, and Vector Databases Redefine Property Management At the heart of ResiDesk’s success is its application of LLMs. Finely tuned to understand the specific language and context of property management, these AI systems aren’t generic; they’re designed to handle the complexities of lease agreements, maintenance requests, and resident concerns with both precision and empathy.

LANGUAGE WITHOUT SPEECH

The Eternal Savage by Edgar Rice Burroughs, is part of the HackerNoon Books Series. You can jump to any chapter in this book here. THE FIGHT THE FIGHT After Nu, the son of Nu, had left his father and his father's people to go in search of Nat-ul and Hud, the warrior chief had sat in silence for many minutes. Beside him sat Tha, father of Nat-ul, and round about squatted the other members of the tribe. All were silent in the face of the sorrow that had overtaken their chief and his principal lieutenant. Nu and Nat-ul were great favorites among their savage fellows. Not so, however, Hud, and the anger against him was bitter. Presently Nu, the chief, spoke. "We cannot go in search of a new home," he said, "leaving two of our children behind." His listeners knew that he ignored Hud—that Hud, in bringing this sorrow upon the tribe, had forfeited his rights among them. They were satisfied that it should be so. A young warrior stood up. With his spear he drew a line upon the ground from east to west and lying just north of him. "Nu, the son of Nu, passed through the ordeals with me—we became men and warriors upon the same day. Together we hunted our first lion." He paused, and then, pointing to the line he had drawn upon the ground, continued. "Never shall I cross this line until I have found Nu, the son of Nu." As he ceased speaking he drew himself to his full height and with arms folded across his broad chest turned to face his chief. From the tribe came grunts of approval. All eyes turned toward Nu. What would he do? The young warrior's act was nothing short of rebellion. Suddenly Aht, brother of Nat-ul, sprang to his feet and stood beside the defiant warrior. He said nothing—his act proclaimed his intention. Nu, the chief, looked at the two young men from beneath his shaggy brows. The watchers were almost certain that a half smile played grimly about his grim countenance. He, too, arose. He walked to where the two stood and ranged himself beside them. Tha was the first to guess the significance of the act, and the instant that he did so he leaped to Nu's side. Then the others understood, and a moment later the whole tribe was ranged with their backs to Dag's line, facing toward the south. They were dancing and shouting now. The men waved their stone axes or threw their long spears high in air. The women beat their palms together, and the little children ran skipping about, getting in everyone's way. After a few minutes of this Nu started off toward the south, telling off a score of men to remain with the women and children who were to follow slowly back toward their former dwellings while the chief with the balance of the fighting men searched rapidly ahead for signs of Nu and Nat-ul. First they came upon the dead body of Hud within the cave in the face of the Barren Cliffs. From there they discovered Nu's spoor and faint traces of the older spoor of the girl, showing that Nu had not overtaken her at this point. On they went along the beach toward their old caves, and everywhere the signs of one or the other of those they followed were distinguishable. It was dark when they reached the caves, and the following morning they had difficulty in again picking up the spoor because of the fact that the tide had obliterated it where it had touched the sandy beach at low tide. Now Nu separated his warriors into three parties. One, with which he remained, was to keep south along the beach, the second was to work into the jungle for a mile and then turn south, while the third was to search straight inland toward the west. In this way one of them must come upon those they sought, or some sign of them. Tha was in command of the central party, and Aht was with him. Dag was with Nu, the chief. They beat rapidly along the beach, and spread out across it from the water to the jungle, that nothing might escape their observation. Several times they followed false leads into the jungle, so that they lost much time, with the result that darkness came upon them without their having discovered the two they sought. They camped upon the sand just outside the jungle, building a ring of fires about them to keep off the wild beasts. Then they lay down to sleep—all but two who kept watch and tended the fires. Dag was one of the watchers. As the night grew darker he became aware of a glow in the south. He called his companion's attention to it. "There are men there," he said. "That is the light from beast-fires. Listen!" Savage yells rose faintly from the distance, and in the direction of the lights. Dag was on the point of arousing Nu when his keen eyes detected something moving warily between the jungle and the camp. Evidently it had but just crept out of the dense vegetation. Ordinarily Dag might have thought it a beast of prey; but with the discovery of the nearness of a camp of men, he was not so sure. True, men seldom crept through the jungle after darkness had fallen; but there was something about the movements of this creature that suggested the crawling of a man on all fours. Dag circled the camp, apparently oblivious of the presence of the intruder. He threw a stick upon a blaze here, and there he stamped out some smoking faggots that had fallen inside the ring. But all the while he watched the movements of the thing that crept through the outer darkness toward the camp. He could see it more distinctly now, and was aware that from time to time it cast a backward glance over its shoulder. "Had it a companion, or companions? Was something following it?" Dag scrutinized the black face of the jungle beyond the creeping thing. "Ah! so that was it?" A dark shadow had stepped from the somber wood upon the trail of the creature that was now half way across the open space between the jungle and the camp. Dag needed no second glance to attest the identity of the newcomer. The lithe body, the black mass that marked the bristling mane, the crouching pose, the two angry splotches of yellow-green fire—no doubt here. It was Zor, the lion, stalking his prey. Dag whispered a word to his companion who came to his side. The two stood looking straight toward the nearer creature, with no attempt to disguise the fact that they had discovered it. "It is a man," whispered Dag's companion. And then, with a frightful roar, Zor charged, and the creature before it rose upon two feet full in the light of the nearer blaze. With a cry that aroused the whole camp Dag leaped beyond the flaming circle, his spear hand back thrown, the stone head, laboriously chipped to a sharp point, directed at the charging Zor. The weapon passed scarce a hand's breadth from the shoulder of Zor's prey and buried itself in the breast of the beast. At the same instant Dag leaped past the fugitive, placing himself directly in the path of the lion with only an ax and knife of stone to combat the fury of the raging, wounded demon of destruction. Over his shoulder he threw a word to the one he had leaped forth to succor. "Run within the beast-fires, Nat-ul," he cried; "Zor's mate is coming to his aid." And sure enough, springing lightly across the sands came a fierce lioness, maned like her lord. Now Dag's fellow warrior had sprung to his side, and from the camp were running the balance of the savage spearmen. Zor, rearing upon his hind feet, was striking at Dag who leaped nimbly from side to side, dodging the terrific blows of the mighty, taloned paws, and striking the beast's head repeatedly with his heavy ax. The other warrior met the charge of the infuriated lioness with his spear. Straight into the broad breast ran the sharp point, the while the man clung tenaciously to the haft, whipped hither and thither as the beast reared and wheeled and struck at him with her claws. Now Nu, the chief, and his fellows arrived upon the scene. A score of spears bristled from the bodies of Zor and his mate. Axes fell upon their heads, and Nu, the mighty, leaped upon Zor's back with only his stone knife. There he clung to the thick mane, driving the puny weapon time and again into back and side until at last the roaring, screaming beast rolled over upon its side to rise no more. The lioness proved more tenacious of life than her lord, and though bristling with spears and cut to ribbons with the knives of her antagonists she charged into close quarters with a sudden rush that found one of the cave men a fraction of a second too slow. The strong claws raked him from neck to groin and as he fell the mighty jaws closed with a sickening crunch upon his skull. At bay over her victim the lioness stood growling and threatening, while the wild warriors danced in a circle about her awaiting the chance to rush in and avenge their comrade. Within the circle of fires Nat-ul replenished the blaze, keeping the whole scene brilliantly lighted for the warriors. That she had stumbled upon men of her own tribe so unexpectedly seemed little short of miraculous. She could scarce wait for the battle with the lions to be concluded, so urgent was the business that filled her thoughts. But at last Zor's savage mate lay dead, and as Nu, the chief, returned to the camp Nat-ul leaped forward to meet him. "Quick!" she cried. "They are killing Nu, thy son," and she pointed toward the south in the direction of the glare that was now plainly visible through the darkness. Nu did not wait to ask questions then. He called his warriors about him. "Nat-ul says that they slay Nu, the son of Nu, there," he said, pointing toward the distant fire-glow. "Come!" As Nat-ul led them along the beach and through the jungle she told Nu, the chief, all that had transpired since Hud had stolen her away. She told of her wanderings, and of the Boat Builders. Of how one had chased her, and of the terrible creature that had seized and carried her to its nest. She told of the strange creature that crawled into the shelter where she was confined, leaping upon the back of Tur. And of how she slipped out of the shelter as the two battled, and escaped into the jungle, wriggling her hands from their bonds as she ran. She shuddered as she told Nu of the gauntlet of savage beasts she had been forced to run between the beast-fires of the Boat Builders and the safety of the jungle trees. "I rested for the balance of the night in a great tree close beside the village of the strangers," she said. "Early the next morning I set out in search of food, intending to travel northward until I came to our old dwellings where I could live in comparative safety. "But all the time I kept wondering what it might have been that leaped upon Tur's back in the shelter the night before and the more I thought about it the more apparent it became that it might have been a man—that it must have been a man, for what animal could pass through the beast-fires unseen? "And so, after filling my stomach, I crept back through the trees to the edge of the village, and there I watched. The sun then was straight above me—half the day was gone. I could not reach the caves before darkness if anything occurred to delay me, and as I might at any moment stumble upon some of the strangers or be treed by Ur, or Zor, or Oo, I decided to wait until early tomorrow morning before setting out for the caves. There was something within me that urged me to remain. What it was I do not know; but it was as though there were two Nat-uls, one wishing to hurry away from the land of the strangers as rapidly as possible and the other insisting that it was her duty to remain. At last I could deny my other self no longer—I must stay, and so I found a comfortable position in a great tree that grows close beside the clearing where the strangers' village stands, and there I remained until long after darkness came. "It was then that I saw the thing within the village that sent me here. Before, I had seen your fires, and wondered who it might be that came from the north. I knew that all the strangers had returned in the afternoon, so it could be none of them, and the first tribe to the north I knew was my own, so I hoped, without believing, that it might indeed be some of thy warriors, Nu. "And then I saw that something was going to occur in the village below me. Warriors approached a hut from which they dragged a captive. By the legs they dragged him, through the village and about it, and as they did so the women and children tortured and spat upon the prisoner. "At first I could not see the victim plainly, but at last as they raised him to his feet and bound him to a stake where they are going to roast him alive among slow fires I saw his face. "Oh, Nu, can you not guess who it was that had followed me so far, had overcome such dangers and fought his way through the awful waters to rescue me?" "Nu, the son of Nu," said the old warrior, and his chest swelled with pride as he strode through the jungle in the rear of the village. Angry beasts of prey menaced the rescuing party upon every hand. Twice were they attacked and compelled to battle with some fierce, primordial brute; but at last they won to the edge of the jungle behind the village they sought. There the sight that met their eyes and ears was one of wild confusion. Men and women were running hither and thither uttering shouts of rage. Beyond them was a circle of flaming brush. In the center of this, Nat-ul told the rescuers, Nu, the son of Nu, was fast bound to a stake. Slowly he was roasting to death—possibly he was already dead. Nu gathered his warriors about him. Two he commanded to remain always beside Nat-ul. Then, with the others at his heels, his long, white feather nodding bravely above his noble head, and the shaggy pelt of Ur, the cave-bear, falling from his shoulders, Nu, the chief, slunk silently out of the jungle toward the village of the excited Boat Builders. There were forty of them, mighty men, mightily muscled. In their strong hands they grasped their formidable spears and heavy axes. In their loin cloths rested their stone knives for the moment when they closed in hand-to-hand combat with foes. In their savage brains was but a single idea—to kill—to kill—to kill! To the outer rim of fires they came and yet the excited populace within had not discovered them. Then a girl, remembering tardily her duties at the fires, turned to throw more brush upon the blaze and saw them—saw a score of handsome, savage faces just beyond the flames. With a scream of terror and warning she turned and scurried amongst the villagers. For an instant the hub-bub was stilled, only to break out anew at the girl's frightened cry of: "Warriors! Warriors!" Then Nu and his men were among them. The warriors of the Boat Builders ran forward to meet the attackers. The women and children fled to the opposite side of the enclosure. Hoarse shouts and battle cries rang out as the Cliff Dwellers hurled themselves upon the Boat Builders. A shower of long slim spears volleyed from one side, to be answered by the short, stout harpoons of the villagers. Then the warriors rushed to closer conflict with their axes. Never after the first assault was the outcome of the battle in question—the fiercer tribe of Nu—the hunters of beasts of prey—the warrior people—were the masters at every turn. Back, back they forced the wearers of "cow" skins, until the defenders had been driven across the enclosure upon their women and children. And now the inner circle of fires was surrendered to the invaders, and as Nat-ul sprang between the warriors of her people to be first to the side of Nu and cut away his bonds, the last of the Boat Builders turned and fled into the outer darkness, along the beach to where their boats were drawn up beyond the tide. Nu, the chief, leaped through the flames upon the heels of Nat-ul. In the terrible heat within the two came side by side before the stake. The girl gave a single glance at the bare and smoking pole and at the ground around it before she turned and threw herself into Nu's arms. Nu, the son of Nu, was not there, nor was his body within the enclosure. About HackerNoon Book Series: We bring you the most important technical, scientific, and insightful public domain books.

THE FIGHT

A BREAK FOR LIBERTY

How to stay unique and still give a hard time to competitors? Well, we can learn something about it from Microsoft. Microsoft is all set to make its mark by rolling out new features and stay different, better and user-friendly to its customers. Let's check out the new features which will be available soon. 1. Smart call feature Longer hours of work from home due to this pandemic implies many video calls. Creating a video call link is a bummer if you just want things quick and easy, like me. With “Meet Now” (a new video-calling feature of Microsoft Edge), you can begin a video call with almost 50 people. No more fancy software installation—just tap on Meet Now on the new tab page, create a link and share it. Don’t check out right away, the new feature will be rolled out in upcoming weeks. 2. New screenshot tool Do you squint while taking a screenshot and feel like a bomb-squad carefully plucking out things? Well, give your fingers some rest, as the new feature will rescue you. No more going to the search bar, opening a screenshot app which takes forever to open or get an extension on the browser. Now, Edge’s screenshot tool will scroll down the entire page or image and let you take a screenshot with just a click. All you have to do: Tap on the web capture, preview it and share it instantly. Easy, right? 3. Price comparison feature This one is a bliss for online shopaholics. Who doesn’t compare prices while shopping online? Well, everyone loves to do it but it’s not an easy task. \With this new feature, you can actually compare prices without switching between tabs in the browser. In-built “compare price to other retailers” surely makes things easy as shown in the gif attached. In near future, Edge is expected to have coupon options too. 4. Pinterest integration With ‘Collection feature’ in-built in Edge, you can save images, text or web pages directly into your Pinterest boards. ‘Collections’ lets you export stuff to OneNote, Excel, Pinterest and Word, but sharing stuff through email is yet to be rolled out. But hey, these new features are a great start for Edge. I wish it good luck! Share your thoughts about these cool and new improvements. Image credits: Microsoft

Watch out Chrome, Microsoft Edge is All set to Have an Edge on you

Edge AI starts with edge computing. Also called edge processing, edge computing is a network technology that positions servers locally near devices. This helps to reduce system processing load and resolve data transmission delays. These processes are performed at the location where the sensor or device generates the data, also called the edge. Note: This article was written by Tatsuo Kurita Developments in edge computing mean that edge AI is becoming more important. This is true across a variety of industries, particularly when it comes to processing latency and data privacy. In this article we’ll look at the impact of Edge AI, why it’s important, and common use cases for it. What is edge AI? Edge AI refers to AI algorithms that process locally on hardware devices, and can process data without a connection. This means operations such as data creation can occur without streaming or storing data in the cloud. This is important because there are an increasing number of cases where device data can’t be handled via the cloud. Factory robots and cars, for example, need high-speed processing with minimal latency. To achieve these goals, edge computing can generate data through deep learning on the cloud to develop deductive and predictive models at the data origin point, i.e. the device itself (the edge). We can see an example of this at work in factory robots. AI technology can be used here to visualize and assess vast amounts of multimodal data from surveillance cameras and sensors at speeds humans can’t process. We can also use it to detect faulty data on production lines that humans might miss. These kinds of IoT structures can store vast amounts of data generated from production lines and carry out analysis with machine learning. They are also at the heart of the deductive and predictive models that improve the smartification of factories. Edge AI, the Internet of Things, and 5G: Edge AI is often talked about in relation to the Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G networks. The term IoT refers to devices connected to each other through the internet, and includes smartphones, robotics, and electronic devices. As a platform that performs analysis with AI, edge AI can collect and store the vast amount of data generated by IoT, making it possible to use clouds with scalable characteristics. This allows for improved data processing and infrastructural flexibility. 5G networks can enhance the above-mentioned processes because their three major features — ultra-high speed, massive simultaneous connections, and ultra-low latency — clearly surpass that of 4G. 5G is indispensable for the development of IoT and edge AI, because when IoT devices transmit data, data volume swells and impacts transfer speed. Drops in transfer speed can create latency, which is the biggest issue when it comes to real-time processing. Why are edge computing and edge AI important? There are an increasing number of cases in which device data can’t be handled via the cloud. This is often the case with factory robots and cars, which require high-speed processing because of issues that can arise when increased data flow creates latency. For example, imagine a self-driving car suffering from cloud latency while detecting objects on the road, or operating the brakes or steering wheel. Any slowdown in data processing will result in a slower response from the vehicle. If the slowdown is such that the vehicle does not respond in time, this could result in an accident. Lives are literally at risk. For these IoT devices, a real-time response is a necessity. This means the ability for devices to analyze and assess images/data on the spot without relying on cloud AI. By entrusting edge devices with information processing usually entrusted to the cloud, we can achieve real-time processing without transmission latency. In addition, by limiting cloud data transmissions to only vital information, it is possible to reduce data volume and minimize communication interruptions. Edge AI Use Cases The edge AI market is chiefly comprised of two areas: industrial machinery, and consumer devices. We’re seeing progress with demonstration tests in areas including controlling and optimizing equipment, and automating skilled labor techniques. Progress is also being made with consumer devices that have cameras with AI that automatically recognize photographic subjects. Because the number of devices is larger than industrial machines, the consumer device market is expected to rise drastically from 2021 onwards. We’ve put some common use cases for edge AI below: Self-Driving Cars Self-driving cars are the most anticipated area of applied edge computing. There are many cases where self-driving cars have to make instantaneous assessments of a situation, and this requires real-time data processing. In December of 2019, revisions to the Road Traffic Act and Road Transportation Vehicle Law in Japan made it easier to get level 3 self-driving cars on the road. These include the safety standards that autonomous vehicles are held to, and the areas in which they can operate. As a result, car manufacturers are working on self-driving cars that adhere to these standards. Toyota, for example, is already testing full automation (level 4) with the TRI-P4. Autonomous Drones There’s been an increase of news about drones losing control and going missing while on remote flight experiments. This has even resulted in accidents. Depending on where the drone lands, a crash can be catastrophic. With autonomous drones, the pilot is not actively involved in the drone’s flight. They monitor the operation remotely, and only pilot the drone when absolutely necessary. The best known example of this is Amazon Prime Air, a drone delivery service which is developing self-piloting drones to deliver packages. Facial Recognition Facial recognition systems are a development in surveillance cameras, which can learn to recognize people by their faces. In November 2019, WDS Co., Ltd began supplying Eeye, an AI camera module that analyzes facial features in real-time through edge AI computing processes. Eeye recognizes faces quickly and accurately, and is suited for marketing tools that target characteristics such as gender and age, and face identification for unlocking devices. Smartphones This edge AI device is the one we’re all most familiar with. Siri and Google Assistant are good examples of edge AI on smartphones, as the technology drives their vocal user interfaces. With on-device AI, processing happens on the device (edge) side, meaning there is no need to deliver device data to the cloud. This helps secure privacy and reduce traffic. The Future of Edge AI Edge AI is growing, and we’ve seen big investments in the technology. Companies like Konduit AI are making it a key part of their AI strategy in Southeast Asia. Another example was in January of 2020, when it was reported that Apple invested 200 million dollars to acquire the Seattle-based AI enterprise, Xnor.ai. Xnor.ai’s AI tech processes data on the user’s smartphone with edge processing. With built-in AI on the smartphone itself, we’ll likely see advancements in voice processing, facial recognition technology, and enhanced privacy. According to the “2019 AI Business Aggregate Survey” published by Fuji Keizai Group, the edge AI computing market in Japan had a forecast market size of 11 billion yen in the 2018 fiscal year. The survey predicts the market to expand to 66.4 billion yen in the 2030 fiscal year. And with the spread of 5G, we’ll also likely see decreasing costs and increasing demand for edge AI services across the world.

A Simple Introduction to Edge AI

( ) Pictured: everipedia santa monica HQ Human culture is a straight line — as we travel from the west to the east, things become more contained and less interesting. is not nearly as important as we travel east. Technology In my entrepreneurial experience, I started a company in NYC (Rap Genius) and another one in LA (Everipedia). Rap Genius is a billion dollar company, and I have a lot of equity in it — but I still think Rap Genius is a failure. Even though it is the definitive internet lyrics platform, it never became the universal knowledge annotator that it could have been. It is a billion dollar company, not a trillion dollar company. is going to be a trillion dollar company — we are building the cryptocurrency platform for all knowledge and social networks — it will be the “crypto facebook”. I think that the main reason why Everipedia will succeed, and Rap Genius will fail, is that the companies were started in NYC — the fakest tech city in the U.S. — whereas Everipedia was started in LA — the “Minority Internet Paradise.” Everipedia I’m not going to get into SF or Silicon Valley because it’s just plain-old weird. They have a lot of huge hit companies like, but they’re still way too beta. Also, I never started a company in SF. And finally, I think cryptocurrency will bring Silicon Valley to its knees, their centralized institutions like Facebook and Google singing their swansong, with LA becoming the more dominant crypto-powerhouse. NYC Sucks The first funding Rap Genius ever got was from Y Combinator in 2011. Although my cofounders, and , were living in New York before YC, I always hoped that the of the office would be in California. Tom Lehman Ilan Zechory future In late 2011, I was in for a rude awakening. Tom and Ilan disappointted me deeply:, they said they were going back to nyc to get an office. Their excuse was because a lot of nyc investors had invested like . We also got an LA beach house in Malibu, however, and I split the year between nyc and LA. Ben Lerer There are no good tech startups in NYC. The biggest hit of all time is Tumblr, which is an underwhelming piece of shit where the hipster CEO took his billion dollars and throws lots of cocaine parties now. He never even cared about his own platform. No one in NYC has a trillion dollar tech vision. One major, literal problem having a tech office in NYC is that the buildings are very tall and the internet is slow. In my experience, all of the office internet at Rap Genius was a cheap, shitty experience. When the internet is slow, workers have a hard time getting inspired — nobody discovers a trillion dollar vision. I’ve been involved with crypto since 2013. 5 years ago, there was no city like NYC that was as backwards as crypto — pretty much all NYC tech entrepreneurs would poo-poo the idea. Nowadays, it seems NYC has finally caught up and bit the crypto bullet — they are becoming fairweather fans, but there seems nothing sincere in the tech. There is an impressive NYC crypto-company called , except, Consensys doesn’t actually build anything. They have relationships with big corporations but they are, in fact, totally fake. Consensys is a metonym of the NYC crypto-tech scene, and, indeed, the whole tech scene. I don’t think crypto will have any success in nyc because, why would the crypto economy be welcomed in the city of the dirty centralized finance overlords? It just doesn’t make any sense. Consensys LA is Chill In 2012, right after Ben Horowitz invested in Rap Genius, he had us over for dinner at his house. It was one of the earliest times of us just hanging out, shooting the shit — opportunities that would become countless in the next couple of years. At that dinner, I told him one thing: “BEN: you need to invest in Tinder and Snapchat”. I knew Tinder and Snapchat would blow the fuck up, and I was particularly proud that they are LA companies. At the time, lots of people seemed to think that LA tech was mediocre, but I had not seen anything approaching consumer internet like Tinder or Snapchat from SF or SV for several years — since Instagram, actually. Ben said no — he actually said he’d been pitched both by Tinder Snapchat in the previous several months, and the valuation was too high. and In this respect, Ben paid a sore price for not taking my advice — and for disrespecting the LA tech scene. Unlike NYC and (I’ve heard) SF, LA doesn’t have a lot of tall buildings, so there are lots of spaces with fast internet. LA is like Silicon Valley — it is low-rise, so it’s good for the internet. I met the “Persian Zuck” cofounder of Everipedia, , at UCLA in 2015 and it is a pretty sick hacker school — better than Stanford. Stanford has rich snobby kids, where as UCLA has middle-class hacker thugs. Our CTO and our lead blockchain developer both come from UCLA as well. Sam Kazemian Persian Zuck and I were long-obsessed with cryptocurrency. I was an early bitcoin investor, and he mined bitcoin to pay his tuition in college. But it wasn’t until a year after Everipedia’s launch that we turned the “crypto-wikipedia” — an integration of the site with IQ tokens and cryptocurrenty — into our $30 million raise. There are a lot of cryptocurrency lions in Los Angeles because the city marches to its own tune. Cryptocurrency is a huge technology, but for some reason, people in SF/SV are somewhat alienated to crypto because they know, deep down inside, that it’s going to eat their own lunch. Cryptocurrency will eventually turn centralized Silicon Valley institutions like Google and Facebook into a pillar of salt: it’s only a matter of time. One of our fundraising mentors is the cryptocurrency genius . He’s based in LA, and now, Puerto Rico, which reminds me of LA. His Venice pad is probably the most baller house in the canals, and he has a giant unicorn floaty that he purchased from his neighbor with ethereum. If Everipedia’s President, Sam, is the “Crypto Zuck”, then Brock is definitly the “Crypto Peter Thiel”. Brock Pierce Tinder and Snapchat, LA’s big powerhouses, aren’t involved in crypto at all. It’s a shame! Especially with Snapchat, crypto could have given them the edge to overcome Facebook. Affirmations One time, before our $30M raise, we even flirted with the idea of moving to Palo Alto with Everipedia — in 2016, Sam looked at Mark Zuckerberg’s “Facebook House” near Stanford where they threw cocaine parties, like the one portrayed in the film “The Social Network”. In the end, however, Los Angeles was our home. The security deposit of the Facebook cocaine house was too high, and we raised $30 million to build a major crypto platform: something that is, indeed, anathema to Silicon Valley. It was time to stay in LA. One one last thing: Everipedia is representative of Los Angeles because our staff encompasses a lot of weird races. No big city is “Minorityville U.S.A.” like Los Angeles — it is something that makes the city a great representation of both the internet and crypto. The world be becoming borderless, and Los Angeles is at its cutting edge. Everipedia just moved into our first commercial office in Santa Monica, at 201 Wilshire. It is across the street from the Bungalow. If you want to come check out the biggest LA tech company — the crypto Facebook, bigger than Snapchat — then please get involved in our community and make an Everipedia page. It is the CRYPTO FACEBOOK y’all — and nobody can build this trillion dollar company like Los Angeles can…..
