"In this context, Reply has already started to invest and work on the most cutting-edge frontier, the one relating to the confluence of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and the cloud, which can be expressed by the paradigm of the Authonomy of Things: objects and services designed to interact with all intelligent entities, using data and artificial intelligence autonomously." concluded Mario Rizzante.
