Artificial intelligence delivery edge network

A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores computer instructions which, when executed by one or more computing processors, cause the one or more computing processors to perform:

• configuring an artificial intelligence (AI) service director with one or more mappings from one or more domain names of one or more AI cloud engines to one or more internet protocol (IP) addresses of one or more edge nodes of an AI delivery edge network, wherein the one or more AI cloud engines are located in an AI source geographic region, wherein the AI delivery edge network is deployed in a non-AI-source geographic region other than the AI source geographic region;
• redirecting an AI application, which accesses one or more AI services using a domain name of an AI cloud engine in the one or more AI cloud engines located in the AI source geographic region, to an edge node in the one or more edge nodes of the AI delivery edge network located in the non-AI-source geographic region, wherein the AI application is hosted in the non-AI-source geographic region;
• providing, by way of the edge node located in the non-AI-source geographic region, the one or more AI services to the AI application;
• causing the AI application to the edge node to invoke at least one of the one or more AI services to train a prediction model locally at the edge node.

An apparatus, comprising:

• one or more computing processors;
