The author is a known industry shill. His articles (this one included) are click bait and SEO fluff for his LT-Accelerate conference - usually wrapped in soft content or descriptions of products for companies he consults for.
Perfect article for CNN, FOX or CNBC, however it is a total waste of time for us. No new information discussed.
Can somebody extract the parts where he is actually talking about technologies, concepts being used and potential technical breakthroughs? (... ''breaktrhough'' ..)
I agree, this article seems to be just entirely fluff. I was hoping I'd see something about the actual technology itself.
I was starting to wonder if I lost my mind, reading over the first 3rd to half of it the article felt... empty. Glad I'm not TOTALLY crazy.
