Edge Computing In The Age Of AI
RCR Wireless News, Friday, November 7th, 2025
The massive investments in AI recently are starting to look like a bubble. Yes, of course, there will be a correction. But after technology bubbles, there is normally something useful left over that can be an economic powerhouse for decades to come.
In the 1800s, railroads were built all over the world, creating a lasting infrastructure that enabled huge economic growth. People forget that California tracks were built with narrow-gauge tracks, supporting the gold-mining bubble. Narrow-gauge rail was the cheapest way to build a track up a mountain to extract ore. The CAPEX of building the tracks was more important than the poor OPEX of driving trains slowly down the mountain. But these railroads were left as obsolete relics when the world of transportation moved on.they used the wrong standard and were located in the wrong places for modern use.
