Leonard Rob Stephanie David Marc Rick

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #189 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.

In this week's episode we hope every one had a great 2023. It's been a weird one of the hockey sticks of tech layoffs, forgotten bank meltdowns (SVB,... remember?), and astronomical Gen AI-driven tech stock madness  Rob, Steve, Leonard and Pete jump on Web3 to talk about:

* Bad Karaoke for the Week: "Auld Lang Syne" (Heavy Metal Reggae Version)
* Should you or should you not go to NYC to watch the ball drop in person?
* A few more days left to make your donation to Elevate Our Kids at www.elevateourkids.org
* Status report on Rob's Jerry Lewis telethon to bridge the digital equity divide
* Rob unveils THE IOT COFFEE TALK CONSUMER ELECTRONICS PRODUCT of 2023!!
* 2023 Take - Generative AI dominated everything and steam rolled everything
* 2023 Take - Trust notably declined and could be an endangered species
* 2023 Take - Are we tech gluttons? Is it sustainable? Does tech overdose foster good?
* 2023 Take - The pros and cons of convenience
* 2023 Take - The asymmetry of Generative AI impact and the low bar for accelerating the "Uneconomy" (the dark economy). 
* 2023 Take - The electric vehicle (EV) hits a wall!
* 2023 Take - Why do so-called revolutionary tech have serious sustainability issues?
* 2023 Take - Unintended Consequences: China and the chip trade

It's a great final episode of 2023! Check out the whole thing. You will get all you need to survive another week in the world of IoT and greater tech!
