On this week’s episode, we are going to learn how apic.ai is using Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things to do very real science, as they investigate and study the behavior of bees in the wild. As Edge AI use cases continue to develop, the pioneering work that apic.ai is doing can be used as a model for others to learn from.
