That actually sounds like an argument for allowing patients the option of a "fast lane" to their hospital for telemedicine and monitoring with higher priority than Netflix and YouTube.
I haven't done it myself yet, it's on the to-do list. There is a lot of academic material on PID autotuning, not always with neural networks but that seems the most straightforward way. A Raspberry Pi is probably overkill for the job, actually.
It's worth having a self-contained option available. For something like a drone, you don't need all that much computation for on-the-fly PID tuning in response to changing weather or different piloting styles, etc.
Even if that were true and it were also true that privacy features would harm shareholders, then lobbying to make those privacy features mandatory would itself be acting against shareholder interests.
In the voice assistant example, the server is one of the endpoints. The point they're making is that E2E doesn't really help there if you can't be sure who is looking over shoulders on the other end. If the two ends are both under your control or scrutiny, then it doesn't matter who's hiding in the clouds... Except for metadata of course.
Even though you're technically wrong (the best kind of wrong), I can see where you're coming from. Even microcontroller ICs without enough memory to store this comment are real computers and are silent, but if you say you've built a silent computer and then unveil some Arduino contraption, expect eyes to roll.
That said, I still think smartphones qualify as computers even by your productivity definition. Newer smartphones would sit somewhere above older netbooks on a ranking of overall utility.
