GOOD TO KNOW in the context of this conversation: 

What ARE Smart, connected products and solutions with AIoT

The smartness of an AIoT-enabled product or solution is usually either related to an individual physical product/asset ("product/asset intelligence"), or to a group/fleet of assets ("swarm intelligence"). Technically, asset intelligence is enabled via edge computing, while swarm intelligence is enabled via cloud computing. Asset intelligence is applying AI algorithms to data that is locally captured and processed (via sensors), while swarm intelligence is applying AI algorithms to data that is captured from multiple assets via IoT technologies in the cloud.
