There area already some privacy concerns. New Sony chip is likely embedded for future devices to enable edge processing.

Metadata of some processing will start leaking to external cloud whether you want it or not.

That’s not built in to the Pi, and is way too expensive. It will almost certainly be a HAT. Complaining about this shows ignorance.


I re-read your comment minus the last sentence and I like it better.


> That’s not built in to the Pi

Based on what? Even the linked article title says IN. Maybe they have different models, but based on all the wordings, it is very odd if it is HAT.

> Complaining about this shows ignorance.

If it is external HAT, then maybe. But until then, maybe not.

Edit: There seems to be AI kit available now, but it does not include this:

The "IN" probably refers to in one of the camera modules, or some other module/HAT.

Raspberry Pis don't use any Sony chips on the SBC, Sony image sensors are on the camera modules, and since they're talking about imaging, this makes perfect sense.

Nothing about the Engadget article says to me it'll be on board the Raspberry Pi itself.


They're also producing an AI camera.

The original press releases don't say anything about incorporating it into the base Pi hardware and I don't think they would, given that it would add extra cost and most people don't need it.


Yeah, AI camera integration might be actually the end result. This gives good assumption.
