Definition: AI cloud


A datacenter specialized for AI processing. Heavy AI processing is performed in a datacenter; however, inference processing is increasingly performed in desktop machines as more neural accelerator capability is added to the chips.

Small model training is also increasingly performed in desktop machines, thus eliminating the need to use the AI cloud. For example, Apple's M5 chips were designed to handle more AI work locally. See Apple M series and AI datacenter.
