FYI: Some of tech’s most influential companies may be engaged in internecine digital warfare, but they shared an eerily common vision at the Consumer Electronics Show.
With lockstep precision, each company explained how it was uniquely positioned to stitch together an estimated 20 billion connected devices worldwide in a market expected to reach $470 billion in 2020, according to Bain & Co. estimates.
They conjured images of cityscapes and homes where the physical and digital worlds blend in a panorama of artificial intelligence, mixed reality, connected devices, and driverless cars—often with the command of a voice or click of a smartphone app. And don’t forget the occasional robot for menial tasks.
