100% agree. Hard to understand because it's so early.

Easy to understand. Just watch kids. Jan's right, behavior shift. All cloud native apps will need to be refactored for Voice User Interface. Platforms like Pivotal will need to upgrade or be obsolete. So I do see it as a platform shift, too. PaaS is so Passe though.

1) I think that’s a little extreme. Voice as an interface has the advantage of fast data input speed but is crippled by data output speed. I think more apps will have voice input as an option but it won’t outright replace web/mobile as it’s just an interface, not a platform.

2) I see the AI assistants as next-gen search engines that have a cloud based application layer. The core platform shift is computing moving from explicitly asking for help from computers to computers implicitly inferring to help us based off conversations with them.

3) while everyone early to voice wants voice to be as big as possible, it’s important we take a step back as an industry and ensure we’re being realistic with our outward statements. Voice as a platform is still budding and needs to show more concrete use cases in the next few yr

I was talking to
@therednickm the other day about how it feels like we’re in the trough of disillusionment with VUI and voice assistants... the thing that is different this time around is the proliferation of devices, both legacy (smartphones) and new (smart speakers & hearables)2 replies 0 retweets 4 likes -

Gentlemen, I hear ya. This is true in the short term. However just like 1976 and what we thought was a PC it is hard for some to perceive how

I view the biggest threat/opportunity right now is education. I think we all can talk amongst ourselves, but if we are not actively educating everyone else around us who will be using this technology in the mainstream this all could be for naught.

Most people I speak with at conferences who are decision makers have no idea where to even begin with all of this. Those who work on building a solid education platform are going to be sought after more than anyone else in the coming years.

Nick, I hear ya. You know I try my hardest to communicate what will come next. Since the 1980s I have been promoting this shift and this moment is starting. I absolutely love the input you and everyone has and together I think we can put out a clear path.

I don't see any conflicting ideas here but recognize conflicting use of terms. Voice is an interface. Voice assistants can be a platform. There will be many applications of voice as an interface which has no platform characteristics but many voice assistants will be platforms.
