One scenario I can picture is the Netflix app on your TV. Firstly, they create a neural network trained on the video data in their library and ship it to all their clients while they are idle. They could then stream very high-quality video at lower bandwidth than they currently use and, assuming decoding can be done quickly enough, provide a great experience for their users. Any updates to the neural network could be rolled out gradually and in the background.

The dictionary had to be updated from time to time to keep a good compression rate as the Google website changed over time. There was a whole protocol to handle verifying what dictionary the client had and such.
