The IoT is quickly changing industries by providing extensive network connections across devices and collecting a large amount of data. However, traditional models deployed on a cloud-only paradigm experience problems with latency, maximum bandwidth to be utilized, and live decision-making procedures. To overcome these challenges, innovative IoT systems that are Autonomous integrated and powered by AI Edging Computing are becoming an innovative concept. It is most commonly referred to as distributed computing, which involves data analysis near the point of sensors, which helps achieve fast processing and decision-making without much dependence on cloud computing. Edge AI has many benefits including the efficient usage of resources, greater protection, lower delay times, and enabling the device to make decisions on its own. In this context, this paper aims at providing an elaborate insight into AI based Edge Computing to improve the sophistication of the Autonomous IoT architectures. First, it discusses the shortcomings of typical IoT architectures and the relevancies of decentralizing intelligence. Subsequently, it overviews current research progress and stems from understanding how ML, DL, and FL models are being implemented at the edge, addressing predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and system optimisation. To further explain the proposed approach, designing an overall system flow of the edge-based IoT framework with AI, including connection to sensors, performing inference, updating models, and auto-actuating cycles. This is about the application of the Edge AI in the Smart city smart system models on a low compute device such as Jetson Nano, Google Coral and the like. It has been established that there is up to 70% improvement in latency, higher reliability of the system, and efficient decision-making compared to those relaying in the cloud. Besides, they are concerned with limitations like limited computing capability, pruning and quantization, privacy preservation, and emerging Tiny ML and Neuromorphic computing areas. In this way, making clear experiments, flow diagrams, tables, and figures, this investigation offers a practical guide for the researchers and engineers interested in constructing successful accepting, flexible, and smart IoT systems with the help of Edge computing for the future
