## Summary

EE Times editors report on CEA Letty's conference on edge AI, highlighting the European focus on local processing for data privacy and the debut of a Type 1 diabetes autonomous medical device. They also cover PCI-SIG's rapid development of Gen 6 PCI Express, noting the challenges of copper interconnects and board redesigns. Additionally, the episode discusses the hyper-fragmented sensor market at Sensors Expo and Colin Barnden's argument that Level 2+ driver assist systems are more viable for mass-market cars than fully autonomous vehicles.
