Duncan Stewart is the author of Deloitte’s annual Tech, Media and Telecom Predictions, which provides specific forecasts around tech trends and provides extensive strategic food for thought for businesses in all industries. Our conversation covered the predictions regarding Augmented Reality, the “invisible innovation” of the smartphone and other topics. Most surprising are the colossal price declines in Machine Learning made possible by new generations of GPUs and FPGAs. Duncan predicts that corporate use of AI and machine learning technologies will double this year and again in 2019. We also discuss the implications of today’s “ad-allergic” media consumers and the expected fallout from recent controversies around data ownership. This is an episode you will not want to miss!
