What will tech's next big innovation be?
summary
Claims that conversational AI will replace taps and swipes, with conversational bots in three years powering Alexa‑style skills; hardware becoming media exemplified by Peloton’s streaming bike and Ring’s doorbell that captures viral local clips and allegedly 98% of burglaries start at the doorbell; Volocopter reports a prototype lineage including a 2011 all‑electric VTOL takeoff and argues urban air taxis (quieter, computer‑controlled, shared and autonomous) will arrive within a few years; lessons stress go‑to‑market, culture and talent as decisive, not just tech.
