Episode 24 — Federated & Edge Approaches

Federated learning and edge AI represent architectural strategies to protect privacy and reduce reliance on centralized data collection. Federated learning trains models across multiple devices or servers without centralizing raw data, while edge AI processes data locally on devices. This episode introduces both approaches and explains how they reduce risks by limiting data movement, while also providing performance advantages such as reduced latency and greater resilience to connectivity issues.Practical applications illustrate adoption across industries. In healthcare, federated learning allows hospitals to collaborate on research without sharing patient records. In finance, multiple institutions use federated approaches to strengthen fraud detection while protecting proprietary data. Consumer technology, such as smartphones, relies on edge AI for predictive text and voice recognition without sending raw data to the cloud. Challenges include device heterogeneity, synchronization issues, and increased attack surfaces across distributed systems. Learners understand how these methods align with privacy by design and how they fit into an organization’s broader responsible AI strategy.
