As AI applications increasingly migrate to edge devices, developers face the challenge of efficiently implementing these solutions on resource-constrained microcontroller (MCU) platforms. Traditional proprietary toolchains, while optimized for specific hardware, often limit flexibility and scalability. Alif Semiconductor's open-source toolchain strategy aims to address these limitations, paving the way for a new era of embedded AI development. #toolchain #AI #artificialintelligence #machinelearning #ML

Artificial intelligence (AI) was not that much of a priority two or three years ago. Right now, however, almost every application wants AI functionality. “Now, it is required,” says Syed Ali, CEO of Alif Semiconductor during an interview with Nitin Dahad, Editor-in-Chief of embedded.com. “The number of applications that we are seeing are absolutely phenomenal, it is mindboggling,” says Ali, adding that once people’s minds open, they can’t stop thinking out of the box. #AI #ML #artificialintelligence #machinelearning #NPU #neuralprocessing

Alif's founder was thrilled to attend Arm APM this year. The conference was packed with inspiring insights into the future of AI. We are excited to be at the forefront of it all, providing neural processing on chip for our customers, through the Ethos line.
What better way to enjoy Cambridge in the summer than at our annual event! ☀️ Every year, we bring together our people and partners to share a run-down of the latest Arm news and offer a unique chance for industry peers to meet and network. Plus, we share some secret details on what's to come – making it a completely private, NDA event! This year, we focused on all things AI, from our compute platform through to software. Through keynotes and intimate presentations, we demonstrated how the performance and efficiency of Arm technology is unleashing unique capabilities and experiences. We had a fantastic few days and want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone that joined us!
