Hey Jack. Thanks for the post. I too wonder what if anything will come of the IoT / IoE buzz I hear about. I am a decision maker in a technology role, and was discussing this with other tech nerds. Taken to its extreme, automation in general has the power to do great things for society. In the short-term, it's sure to be disruptive as humans will always need to be learning, and honing new skills. I find it fascinating that IoT / IoE has the potential to drive amazing efficiency in corporate America; yet could also be the impetus that causes many humans to seriously consider the idea of socialism
