Heh. Talk about network-attached storage! Not sure how much intelligence I want on my storage device, but they're already doing a fair bit of work so maybe there's slack capacity.
I was thinking maybe the machine learning ("AI") would be rooted in optimizing the access/transfer speeds for different file types in different use cases or for different power consumption targets or something cool like that. I don't need my devices dialing home any more than they already do.
Innogrit is taking that kind of approach with their Tacoma controller, using a neural net to predict which data will be hot vs cold so that it can optimize data placement.
