Key Takeaways
AIDr. Intisar Al-Kayyal, vice president of the AI Governance Association, stated that several factors affect internet connection speed and data transfer, noting that the advertised speed is not necessarily the maximum achievable under normal conditions.
Speaking in a phone interview with Al-Ikhbariya Radio, Al-Kayyal added that actual usage depends on additional factors, including the quality of the connection port, type of cable used, device specifications, file types, temperature, and usage patterns.
She emphasized that the advertised speed represents the maximum possible, but it does not guarantee the actual speed users will experience. Therefore, she advised consumers to consider the entire system when purchasing internet services.
