David Bolton: Machine Learning And Intelligent Assistants Personalize The Internet Of Things

Your devices will know everything about you. Millions of people own smart devices that do simple things like adjust temperature, turn down lights or lock doors when they go out. You can buy a connected fridge that tells you when you have run out of food or set up security cameras that tell you when suspicious movement is detected. There is even a toothbrush that tells you what areas of the mouth you have neglected and an intelligent hair brush that does … something. Depending on which market forecast you believe, the install base for connected devices could be anywhere between 20 billion to just over 30 billion by 2020.
