Welcome to the Mr. Robot era! Bots and machines talking to humans talking to machines. In this talk RedMonk industry analyst James Governor will lay out the emerging landscape for bot-driven apps and machine learning. As we move into voice-driven programmable platforms like Google Now, Siri and Cortana , and intelligent agent-based systems, developers are getting rid of the old UIs completely. What will the world look like when we start talking to the machines, and no longer need to walk around looking down at our phones all the time? A number of trends are changing as machine learning become a reality and we see new platform abstractions and approaches emerge. Big Data, pervasive telemetry, augmented reality, machine learning, integration of every service? what?s not to like?
