The Future Of

Conversation or voice AI is an artificial intelligence tech that enables people to interact with various advanced chatbots as they would do with other humans.The technology itself is relatively new, but the progress in its adoption and implementation has been significant. Conversational AI is rapidly improving and is shifting towards B2B, as there are many business opportunities.To understand exactly how conversational AI can be applied and where it is heading in the future, in this episode of “The Future Of”  Jeff is joined by Kane Simms, Founder of VUX World, and Roger Kibbe, Senior Developer Evangelist at Samsung Research America.They cover:[00:05:53] Conversation and voice AI keeps on improving. In the last couple of years, the industry shifted its focus from the consumer to the B2B side[00:09:21] The breadth of conversational AI is vast, and it is used in business areas where there is a lot of customer demand. You can find voice AI in insurance, financial services, banking, retail, hospitality, travel, healthcare, industry sectors, and government[00:14:15] Conversational AI developed fast as the go-to-market for those devices was very effective,  brought a novelty to the market, and made people's lives easier[00:20:09] The technology of voice AI is good. There are technologies for detecting your emotions, sentiment analysis, voice biometrics, and speech recognition. In recent years, the accuracy level of these technologies has increased, and they are ready for production and business adoption[00:32:43] Regarding healthcare, voice AI could detect anomalies in your overall health or remind you to take your medication on time. It can also help with mental health issues. For doctors, there are applications like recording what they say and eliminating the need to type or assist during operations[00:39:29] In robotics, most human-like robots should have a conversational interface. Generally, voice AI will be an assistant for every device to understand if there are any problems or help humans with their daily activities[00:47:26] The operating system level in the metaverse needs navigation capabilities that voice AI might be useful for. And the same thing applies to digital avatarsIf you’re interested in the concept of conversational AI, tune into this episode of “The Future of”, a Podcast by Fresh Consulting.Full transcript: https://www.freshconsulting.com/insights/podcasts/the-future-of-voice-ai/Subscribe here:Apple: https://apple.co/3t0hujsSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3BLB3jabCast: https://bit.ly/38yNx3lRSS: https://bit.ly/3uaCPIBAnd connect with Kane Simms and Roger Kibbe here:Kane:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kanesimms/Website: https://vux.worldRoger:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rkibbeWebsite: https://www.sra.samsung.comAbout the Show“The Future Of” is a podcast by Fresh Consulting & hosted by Jeff Dance, where we discuss and learn about the future of different industries, markets, and technology verticals.

The "Internet of Things" (IoT) refers to the practice of connecting real-world devices to the internet in order to gather information about such objects. Many folks have the misconception that it started happening all of a sudden. Over the course of many years, a number of companies have been focusing their efforts on enhancing it in some way.The Internet of Things value chain is composed of several components, including devices, gateways, network servers, application servers, and networks. There are public, private, and even satellite network options available. Additionally, there is the option of joining a community network or a hybrid network, both of which enable you to transfer your devices freely between networks without losing their tracking capabilities.Over the course of the last twenty years, there has been unwavering progress. On the market, you can now find silicon chips with integrated LoRa that also include a strong central processing unit and a LoRa front-end. These chips may also be purchased. Connectivity is essential for the cloud and all of its associated ecosystems.In this episode of “The Future Of”  Jeff is joined by Donna Moore, CEO and Chairwoman of LoRa Alliance, Reg Orton Product Development Lead at Fresh Consulting and Rob Tiffany Chief Vision Officer CVO Sustainable Logix.They cover:[ 00:06:00 ] To enable an economy to grow, you need two things:"power and connectivity."  These, in turn, would allow industries to increase and improve Gross domestic product GDP[ 00:07:00 ]  "Internet of Things IoT is connecting things to the internet to provide data." Many people think it just happened overnight, but it didn't. It's been evolving for years, and many companies have been working on developing their devices[ 00:07:31 ]  "To put out IoT, it takes a village." The value chain of IoT consists of; devices, gateways to take the data from the devices, network servers, applications servers, and networks. There are all types of networks, public, private, and satellite. Also, there are now community and hybrid networks, where you can roam devices for tracking between networks[ 00:10:00 ]  The timeline over the last 20 years has been that of progress. You can now buy Silicon chips off the shelf with embedded LoRa, packed with a high-power processor, plus a LoRa front-end. In addition, a connection to the cloud and all the ecosystems around it[ 00:11:33 ]  The concept of "digital twins" is digitally modeling a physical asset, entity, or process. This entails creating a digital representation of it. It's a great way to understand and apply analytics to things that are in the real world[ 00:13:18 ]  As 5G rolls out, new technologies are springing up that allow lower cost, lower power, and many more devices that can work across spectrums and standards previously stuck in the LTE realm[ 00:16:09 ] One of the most exciting things about IoT is "the adoption or the creation of new business models that never existed before"[ 00:22:31 ]  "As AI and process automation continue, and digital twins become more mainstream, we will see hyper-performance and profits for businesses because that data just keeps getting smarter"[ 00:22:51 ] If things go well, we won't be seeing IoT anymore in the next ten to twenty years. It'll disappear into the background and fade into the "fabric of things"[ 00:25:40 ]  Using artificial intelligence, vast volumes of disparate data can be transformed into something helpful, such as increasing public safety, traffic patterns and efficiency, and utility systems[ 00:29:30 ]  One of the biggest challenges faced by IoT today is its complexity. Security is yet another challenge, as IoT inadvertently created the largest attack surface in the history of computing[ 00:34:38 ]  In healthcare, IoT has improved the ability to carry out ambient measurements of devices, for example, by installing air quality sensors in cities to monitor pollution levels. Also, you can track people's footprints and, using artificial intelligence and machine learning, predict where healthcare needs more interventionFull transcript: https://www.freshconsulting.com/insights/podcasts/the-future-of-iot/Subscribe here:Apple: https://apple.co/3t0hujsSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3BLB3jabCast: https://bit.ly/38yNx3lRSS: https://bit.ly/3uaCPIBAnd connect with Donna Moore and Reg Orton here:Donna:LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/donnamoore4Website: https://lora-alliance.orgReg:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regorton/Website: https://www.freshconsulting.comRob:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robtiffany/Website: https://sustainablelogix.comAbout the Show“The Future Of” is a podcast by Fresh Consulting & hosted by Jeff Dance, where we discuss and learn about the future of different industries, markets, and technology verticals.

Very often, the terms "automated" and "autonomous" are used interchangeably, and while they're similar, they're not the same. While automated systems are run based on ML and AI and restricted to specific parameters within which they can work, autonomous systems also use ML and AI but are more adaptive and learn within dynamic environments. Autonomous systems are more intelligent and can even be likened to the human brain based on their decision-making process and ability to work seamlessly with humans as well as other machines. These sophisticated systems can solve many modern-day problems from supply chain management, hasten production, provide new job opportunities, and even be trained to assist in the healthcare sector and personal use by people with disabilities. While enjoying the benefits of autonomous systems across various industries, humanity must also have the ethics attached to developing these systems under control, from legalities and safety of operations to transparency. Although there's still work to be done in developing these systems, the future of autonomous systems in the next decade or two shows a lot of promise.  In this episode of The Future Of… Jeff is joined by Gurdeep Pall, Corporate Vice President, Head of Product Incubations at Microsoft, and Steve Yin, Principal Software Engineer at Fresh Consulting. We talk about AI and autonomous systems, the use of robots in our daily lives, the training of systems to mimic the human brain, and the retraining of humans in adaption to these systems, to mention a few. They cover:The distinction between autonomous systems and automated systems  The relationship between autonomous systems and the human brain The evolution of autonomous systems in terms of AI, machine teaching, and machine learning The advancement of autonomous systems today Near-term areas of expansion for autonomous systems The future of autonomous systems as solutions to global problems The regulation and monitoring of autonomous systems’ learning processesAutonomous systems as a solution to adaptation, supply chain, and safety problems The role of autonomous systems in the personal use of robots Career advice on retraining and adaptation to autonomous systems Steve’s work on algorithms and autonomous systems at Philips Research labs The ethics behind keeping humans in the loop of AI and autonomous system building World mapping and the simulation and training of autonomous systems The superior perception of robots and machines  Applications of autonomous systems in our daily lives The future of autonomous systemsWhere things might go wrong with autonomous systemsAdvice for youngsters on choosing a niche in the industry If you’re interested in the development of AI and autonomous systems, their use cases, machine training and learning, and their applications now and in the future, tune into this episode of “The Future of”, a Podcast by Fresh Consulting.Full transcript: https://www.freshconsulting.com/insights/podcasts/the-future-of-autonomous-systems-2/Subscribe here:Apple: https://apple.co/3t0hujsSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3BLB3jabCast: https://bit.ly/38yNx3lRSS: https://bit.ly/3uaCPIBAnd connect with Gurdeep Pall and Steve Yin here:Gurdeep:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/gurdeep-pall-0aa639bb  Website: www.microsoft.com   Steve:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/xiangtaosteveyin Website: https://www.freshconsulting.com About the Show“The Future Of” is a podcast by Fresh Consulting & hosted by Jeff Dance, where we discuss and learn about the future of different industries, markets, and technology verticals.

The primary means of voting in the USA for many years was through paper ballots. In the late 1800s, this changed as automation was encouraged to count votes. In 2000, the US used voting machines during the electoral process through computer-assisted technology but encountered a voting dilemma the same year. Afterward, purely electronic devices were used, but the damage was done, and a general lack of faith in the technology caused a mistrust of these machines and their accuracy. Today, due to the issues of ballot design, voting errors, and counting and recounting errors, more sophisticated technology is now being considered over the current ones. In this episode of The Future Of… Jeff is joined by Gregory Miller, Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer at OSET Institute, & Marcelino Alvarez, Chief Product Officer at Fresh Consulting & Jocelyn Bucaro, Director, Mobile Voting Project, Tusk Philanthropie.They cover:The voting process todayThe (centralization of a highly decentralized) election management system Key players for the current voting systemThe challenges faced during the voting processPolicy innovations to encourage votingCivic tech and gov techThe security risks present in the current voting system The future of voting in the 21st CenturyWhy Blockchain and distributed ledger voting is impractical in the USA right nowThe trust of the paper ballot over blockchain votingSmartphone biometrics authorization and votingThe UX of ballot papers in the voting processLaws and policies guiding votingBipartisan organizations involved in the advancement of democracyThe prospect of active participation in the voting process by the future generationIf you’re interested in the UI/UX of the electoral process, the UX of ballot design, laws and policies governing the voting process, or, generally, the technology behind the voting process and its future, tune into this episode of The Future of… a Podcast by Fresh.Full transcript: https://www.freshconsulting.com/insights/podcasts/the-future-of-voting/Subscribe here:Apple: https://apple.co/3t0hujsSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3BLB3jabCast: https://bit.ly/38yNx3lRSS: https://bit.ly/3uaCPIBAnd connect with Gregory and Marcelino here:Gregory:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gmiller  Website: https://osetinstitute.org  Marcelino:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcelino Website: https://www.freshconsulting.com  Jocelyn:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jocelyn-bucaro-59a15521 Website: https://tuskphilanthropies.com About the Show“The Future Of”, is a podcast by Fresh Consulting & hosted by Jeff Dance, where we discuss and learn about the future of different industries, markets, and technology verticals.  Together we’ll chat with leaders and experts in the field and discuss how we can shape the future human experience.Previous guests include: Gurdeep Pall of Microsoft, Carolyn Belle of Astroscale, Kane Simms of VUX World, Rogger Kibbe of Samsung Research America, Rob Tiffany of Sustainable Logix, Katrina Stevens of Tech Interactive, Check out our 3 most downloaded episodes:The Future of the MetaverseThe Future of ConstructionThe Future of Generative AI
