Are you drowning in enterprise buzzwords? Do you roll your eyes when you hear any of these: IoT, API, VR, Big Data, Bots, AI. We do too! In this fun episode, Mike and I chat about buzzwords versus protocols, the 10–15 year cycle it takes for buzzwords to be operationalized (e.g. APIs), how use cases make it easier for customers to make sense of buzzwords, real big data versus empty words in pitch decks, when buzzwords dissolve into behavior (e.g. “mobile”), hyper prediction culture, and how 96 years after the 1920 play R-U-R where the word “robot” was first used, bots are back in fashion.
