If you’ve been listening to our show recently, or if you’ve been around any tech talk, you’ve probably heard AI, IoT, and even Edge thrown around. But what does it all actually mean? How do they all connect and what exactly are they doing to advance our world? In today’s episode, we talk with Microsoft innovator and strategist Pete Bernard. Pete drives Microsoft’s strategy for the intersection of 5G, AI, Edge Computing, and IoT. If those terms make your head spin, don’t worry. We talk about the simple explanations of what each of these pieces of tech does, how they create stronger, faster, and more reliable connections when working together, and how they help within our society today. Join us as we discuss the relative term of edge computing and how it works within different industries from agriculture to cellular networks. Pete talks about the importance of low latency and upping computer power through edge technology and AI, as well as how it connects in two-way communication with the cloud to provide faster connections for services like security, safety, and more. You’ll learn a solid definition of artificial intelligence, why you don’t need to be worried about a robot uprising, and even how it is used in everyday practices you may not realize. Plus a look into how all these technologies work together to enable the 5G network, allowing us to change the world as we know it.  So, sit back, hit play, and relax because this episode is packed with information on technologies that will innovate our world and impact our future.  To find the resources we mentioned, or to connect with Pete, check out the links below!    More Of What’s Inside: What edge computing is and how it works Low latency and why you want it Workloads and their importance How IoT keeps us connected The real facts about AI  How 5G works within these technologies The practical side of 5G, AI, IoT Why you don’t need to buy all your equipment 5G mobile gaming and its advantages What exactly the cloud is  How much we have grown And much more!   Guest Links: Microsoft Azure Tour: https://youtu.be/80aK2_iwMOs Microsoft Azure Percept Dev: https://aka.ms/getazurepercept Twitter: @digitaldad   Website: https://5gguys.com   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/5Gguys LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/12515882 Twitter: https://twitter.com/5gGuys   Submit Your Ideas or Feedback: https://5gguys.com/contact-2   Episode Minute By Minute: 0:56 - How you can ask us questions 1:44 - What we cover today 7:03 - How edge computing helps networks 11:19 - A realistic look at AI 16:38 - How AI is helping cellular networks 20:24 - The democratization of technology 23:42 - The Cloud and what it is 28:57 - More resources to check out 30:20 - How to connect with Pete 30:40 - Closing thoughts and advice
