• The era of AI is upon us, with endless new products, services and applications demonstrating advanced AI capabilities.

• The future lies in bringing all these disparate segments together under one umbrella of ubiquitous AI to enable intelligence everywhere, all the time.

• The four pillars underpinning this vision are edge devices, cloud, connectivity and partnerships.

• MediaTek’s vision of the future combines all four pillars, enabling ubiquitous AI computing.

Almost every day we are seeing new products, services and applications demonstrating advanced AI capabilities, in particular Generative AI. The future, though, lies in bringing all these disparate segments together under one umbrella of ubiquitous AI.

There are four key pillars required to realize this vision:

1. Devices: The demand for faster performance is increasingly utilizing the speed, latency and privacy benefits of AI processing at the edge or “on-device. Whether for smartphones, inside an automobile or at home using a new gateway with Generative AI, AI computing is opening up new applications in the areas of productivity, entertainment and safety.

2. Cloud: As the performance requirements for AI processing increase, there is a growing demand for custom silicon, especially for AI accelerators in the cloud, to support ever increasing performance for training, compute and inference.

3. Connectivity: Edge computing will play a pivotal role in AI applications, but some processing will need to be sent to the cloud. This requires a hybrid compute model where cloud and edge devices work together. High-performance hybrid AI computing will require great connectivity for both wireless and wired technology, enabling a seamless, always-connected experience.

4. Partnerships: Underpinning the other three pillars is the need for companies to work together to accelerate AI innovation and harness the potential of AI, whether by supporting LLMs, pushing performance and efficiency to new heights, or exploring new AI-enabled use cases and verticals.

Through these pillars, MediaTek is at the forefront of ubiquitous AI everywhere, with its robust product offerings.

MediaTek is leading the charge in how we engage with AI in our everyday lives, from the home to the car and our mobile devices. Much of this is driven by greater demand for edge processing in everyday devices, where MediaTek has established itself as a proven leader in both technology and market presence. And AI computing on the edge now means data processing can take place on the device, increasing speed, decreasing latency and improving privacy.
