The RxScanner uses infrared light and AI to detect counterfeit medication in seconds. While cloud-dependent models fail during internet outages, smaller, local models ensure reliability in remote regions. This shift toward edge computing allows Adebayo Alonge and others to deploy critical diagnostic tools without relying on unstable data centers.
The Signal
Practitioners must prioritize local inference for high-stakes environments.
