The Impact of IoT Applications, Can Smart Devices Think?

Smart devices, such as those found on the Internet of Things (IoT), do not have the ability to think in the same way that humans do.

Rather, they are programmed to perform specific tasks and to make decisions based on the data that they collect and the instructions that they receive.

All digital devices work based on computer programs and supplied data.

Artificial Intelligence implies that these devices can think on their own.

If programmed appropriately, smart devices can evaluate data that is provided to them and modify processes or settings “on the fly”.

If they are provided with sufficient data, they can “learn” and modify their own code based on the new parameters.

The Impact of IoT Applications, Can Smart Devices Think?

For example, a smart thermostat can be programmed to turn the heating or air conditioning on and off based on the temperature in a room.

It can also learn a person's schedule and adjust the temperature accordingly. However, it does not have the ability to think or make decisions on its own.

Similarly, a smart home security system can use sensors to detect motion and trigger an alarm, but it does not have the ability to assess the situation and decide whether to sound the alarm. It simply follows the instructions it has been given.

Overall, while smart devices can perform tasks and make decisions based on data and instructions, they do not have the ability to think or reason in the way that humans do.

Smart City Challenges

More challenges

Smart city projects need to be transparent and available to citizens via an open data portal or mobile app.

This allows residents to engage with the data and complete personal tasks like paying bills, finding efficient transportation options and assessing energy consumption in the home.

This all requires a solid and secure system of data collection and storage to prevent hacking or misuse. Smart city data also needs to be anonymized to prevent privacy issues from arising.

The largest challenge is quite probably that of connectivity, with thousands or even millions of IoT devices needing to connect and work in unison.

This will allow services to be joined up and ongoing improvements to be made as demand increases. 

Technology aside, smart cities also need to account for social factors that provide a cultural fabric that is attractive to residents and offer a sense of place. 

This is particularly important for those cities that are being created from the ground up and need to attract residents.
