Working Away....
Glad to see this reaffirmed--How to harness the data is the ultimate challenge (something that I think everyone realizes). The question of the "how" is the open question--isn't it?

IOT Future
I know IOT has big data usage because we use data almost everday day and I'm nor sure about the artificial intelligence part but going nto the future they will probably be more of it.

Re: IOT Future
The odd thing in some ways is that so little data is actually used. Most of the data corporations, governments, and NGOs acquire goes straight to storage, never to be touched again. So it's really the AI that will make IoT matter; it's not the gathering but the processing that counts.

Re: IOT Future
@JohnBarnes, I fully agree. That is where the value will be realized. The organizations that begin to tap into the data and develop it as a true asset, will really gain.
It does take the ecosystems (and connectivity) to develop this capability, but then the AI use, as you say, is where customers will get the value and the "wow" factor.

IoT
Companies have to do much more than to just "be in IoT". IoT is a huge arena and it must be used strategically or it is just a waste of resources. This is another example of companies engaging in the latest trend but not really producing any tangible results.

Re: IoT
I agree.
I feel like if a company truly understand IoT then good for them. However, a lot of companies, like you said, are just jumping on the band wagon without really knowing what goes into it. Dumb idea really.

Re: IOT Future
Before "running off" for the W-End, I wanted to report on this I saw which underscores what Mike was try to underscore in his column:
What it is: Otto is a startup founded by ex-Google employees that has created a kit enabling companies to retrofit a commercial truck into a self-driving car. In tests, Otto's sensor-laden hardware and OS transformed a Volvo VNL 780 into a self-driving truck; the team's next step is to work with Class 8 trucks.
Why it's important: Otto's kits let companies create their own self-driving fleets without replacing every single vehicle. While this solution won't replace drivers entirely -- currently, a human still needs to be in the vehicle -- it will hopefully provide long-haul human drivers the critical backup they need for safer, more efficient drives.
enough said...
Wishing all a restful Memorial Day WeekEnd.

Re: IOT Future
Thank you for this!
I find this so fascinating and exciting! It's so cool to see how far we've come with technology when it comes to automobiles.

Re: IOT Future
It is fascinating--but at times rather scary. We have to control this "genie" before it consumes us--As I see it, it is the ultimate challenge as we are all witness to this transformation effort.

Re: IOT Future
@John thanks for enlightening those of us who live under rocks. I assumed less than an optimal amound of data was actually used, but didn't think so much would go straight to storage. So the future of all these connected things isn't the connection or the things themselves, but the AI?
