4.3. Hardware and Deployment Considerations

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is the main difference between a CPU and a GPU?

   Hint

   Think about the tasks each is best suited for.

2. 2.

   Name one advantage of using edge devices.

   Hint

   Consider where data processing takes place.

3. 3.

   What type of processor is best suited for deep learning tasks?

   • CPU
   • GPU
   • TPU

   Hint

   Think about what deep learning requires.

4. 4.

   True or False: Edge devices are often less efficient than cloud computing for data processing.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider where the processing occurs.

5. 5.

   Design an AI application for a real-time traffic monitoring system. Discuss what hardware considerations you would take into account and why.

   Hint

   Focus on latency and processing needs.

6. 6.

   Explain how deploying an AI model in a cloud environment versus an edge environment would alter its performance and user experience.

   Hint

   Think about where and how data needs to be processed.
