Google recently announced Edge TPU, an ASIC designed to do exactly what its name suggests: run AI (and IoT) "on the edge."
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    While high-tech execs issue fevered warnings about the potential dangers of next-gen intelligent machines, the current generation of smart software could already pose a serious security threat.
