Conventional Computers vs Artificially Intelligent Computers

AI Thread Summary
Artificially Intelligent (AI) computers may have operating systems that differ significantly from conventional systems. While traditional computers utilize an operating system with processes, memory management, scheduling, input/output, and file handling, AI systems could incorporate specialized components tailored to specific applications. For instance, an AI designed for autonomous driving would likely include dedicated radar processors and navigation systems, potentially eliminating the need for a traditional operating system in certain components. Instead, these systems might be optimized by manufacturers to focus solely on the necessary functionalities, avoiding the overhead associated with general-purpose features like internet browsing. Neuromorphic computing is also relevant, with developments in neuromorphic chips, such as Intel's Loihi, indicating a shift toward architectures that mimic brain functions. Overall, the evolution of AI operating systems is likely to prioritize efficiency and specialization based on application requirements.

Hello.
A conventional computer has an Operating System that has Process, Memory, Scheduler, Input/Output and Files.

My question is:
What the Operating System of Artificially Intelligent Computers will have?Thank you.

There's a wide variety of things that can be considered an "AI" computer. In many cases, the AI computer will be a conventional computer with AI applications.

But a computer dedicated to a specific AI application will probably have specialized engines design to handle problems specific to that application.
So, for example, an AI system intended to drive cars autonomously will probably include radar processors with systems that in turn include FFT engines. It will also include processors for overall navigation and planning and for operating the car. For the FFT Engine, there will be no operating system - it will be managed by a conventional processor. In the other cases, there are a selection of operating systems that can be optimized by the manufacturer to provide exactly the services requires without the overhead of supporting features such as Internet Browsing.

The same.
 
Well, the date has now passed, and Windows 10 is no longer supported. Hopefully, the readers of this forum have done one of the many ways this issue can be handled. If not, do a YouTube search and a smorgasbord of solutions will be returned. What I want to mention is that I chose to use a debloated Windows from a debloater. There are many available options, e.g., Chris Titus Utilities (I used a product called Velotic, which also features AI to prevent your computer from overheating etc...
After playing around a bit with making star maps, I found another video which introduced me to another trick that can be done using geometry nodes. This one involves fluids. For background, Blender has a fluid physics simulator, which, as the name suggests simulates the behavior of fluids. What this person did was to use geometry nodes to convert the fluid into a point cloud. Then he added a turbulence force field to "stir it around". He was then able to extract the velocity information...
I have been idly browsing what Apple have to offer with their new iPhone17. There is mention of 'Vapour cooling' to deal with the heat generated. Would that be the same sort of idea that was used in 'Heat Pipes' where water evaporated at the processor end and liquid water was returned from the cool end and back along a wick. At the extreme high power end, Vapour Phase Cooling has been used in multi-kW RF transmitters where (pure) water was pumped to the Anode / or alternative Collector and...
