It's an 8-bit microcontroller programmed directly with a suite of open-source software.

It doesn't need to do anything with "the cloud".



They've been adding lots of stuff to the microcontroller for a long time.

"- All-in-one toolbox: Arduino UNO Q combines the powerful Qualcomm® Dragonwing™ QRB2210 microprocessor (MPU) with a real-time STM32U585 microcontroller (MCU) – no matter what you’re building, it’s your new go-to tool! - AI in a blink: unlock AI-powered vision and sound solutions that react to their environment."


Okay, so if you want to use a microprocessor that isn't targetted by an open-source compiler and assembler, you're going to have to use proprietary stuff.

You can just not buy their product.
