“ I really see an explosion in our market in both Edge and AI ”

ARNAUD LANGER GLOBAL MANAGING PARTNER – EDGE & IOT , ATOS
World starting to acknowledge the need for the edge Langer anticipates a surge in the market for both edge computing and AI . He foresees widespread adoption of AI and edge technologies by large companies , driven by a growing recognition of their importance .
The concept of Sovereign AI also highlights an emerging trend where businesses seek to develop bespoke AI solutions tailored to their specific needs and data governance requirements . This approach ensures that AI models are not only customised but also operate within the regulatory and ethical frameworks pertinent to the business or region .
“ How we get that AI on board and just make it for us is where the market is going ,” Langer predicts . “ I don ’ t see any large company that will not have any sort of AI or Sovereign AI or edge in the next 18 months . I think overall we are going to have a widespread AI and development and utilisation across the board .
“ I think that the world will start to acknowledge the need for the edge . AI is becoming mainstream , and the question is not if companies are going to embrace AI , but how ? Therefore , they start getting to understand that edge will be part of the equation . I really see an explosion in our market in both edge and AI .”
