Edge AI is revolutionizing real-time data processing by enabling artificial intelligence to operate directly on edge devices, reducing dependency on cloud computing. This transformation is driven by advancements in machine learning, IoT, and high-performance edge processors. Unlike traditional cloud-based AI, which suffers from latency and bandwidth constraints, Edge AI allows for faster decision- making, improved security, and enhanced reliability by processing data locally.This journal explores the evolution of data processing, the core technologies powering Edge AI, its benefits, and real-world applications across industries such as healthcare, autonomous vehicles, manufacturing, and smart cities. Despite its advantages, Edge AI faces challenges related to computational limitations, energy        efficiency,  and      security risks.[4]However, ongoing innovations, including specialized AI chips and federated learning, promise to overcome these challenges, making Edge AI a crucial component in the future of intelligent systems.
