- David Moschella - Research Fellow, Leading Edge Forum
The Post-Cloud era has already begun. A powerful wave of new technologies—machine learning, smart products, software agents, wearables, blockchains, speech/facial recognition, robotics, augmented realities, algorithms, and 5G wireless bandwidth—is creating a digital world that is pervasive, embedded, aware, and autonomous.
Seeing Digital uses a unique visual format to illustrate how these exciting innovations will transform the industries, organizations, and careers of the 2020s. Insight-packed chapters assess the myths and realities of industry disruption, the necessity of machine intelligence, the importance of platform business models, and the challenges of digital transformation, leadership, and risk. This wide-ranging book also forecasts the coming battle between Silicon Valley and China, how innovation is shifting to the Human Platform, the future of the Enterprise IT function, and technology’s overall impact on jobs, skills, and society. With its easy to read, picture-per-page design, Seeing Digital will help you literally see our technology driven future.
