Recent advances in AI culminate a shift in science and engineering away from strong reliance on algorithmic and symbolic knowledge towards new data-driven approaches. How does the emerging intelligent data-centric world impact research on real-time and embedded computing? We argue for two effects: (1) new chal- lenges in embedded system contexts, and (2) new opportunities for community expansion beyond the embedded domain. First, on the embedded system side, the shifting nature of computing towards data-centricity affects the types of bot- tlenecks that arise. At training time, the bottlenecks are generally data-related. Embedded computing relies on scarce sensor data modalities, unlike those com- monly addressed in mainstream AI, necessitating solutions for efficient learning from scarce sensor data. At inference time, the bottlenecks are resource-related, calling for improved resource economy and novel scheduling policies. Further ahead, the convergence of AI around large language models (LLMs) introduces additional model-related challenges in embedded contexts. Second, on the domain expansion side, we argue that community expertise in handling resource bottle- necks is becoming increasingly relevant to a new domain: the cloud environment, driven by AI needs. The paper discusses the novel research directions that arise in the data-centric world of AI, covering data-, resource-, and model-related challenges in embedded systems as well as new opportunities in the cloud domain.
