In our modern connected world, artificial intelligence (A1) and the internet of things (IoT) technologies are standing at the forefront of innovation and as promising transformative technologies to transform different industrial sectors and reshape how we engage with technology. As we are delving in a new era where intelligence is not solely human-driven but also enhanced by the advancement of modern technologies, the study of the evolution of intelligence in the context of A1 and IoT technologies is deemed essential, and this is where next-gen intelligence arises. With the emergence of next-gen intelligence, the need of more specialized and capable systems extending beyond the traditional A1 algorithms and common IoT systems is perceived as essential.
