Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #190 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.

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2024 with our first IoT Coffee Talk of the year! Rob, Dimitri, Marc, Leonard and Pete jump on Web3 to talk about:

* Bad Karaoke for the Week: "Stairway to Heaven” Solo by Led Zeppelin
* The new “Metaverse” engineer opportunity – prompt engineer!
* Why gardeners, electricians, plumbers, and janitors are the real future opportunities
* Digital twins - the foundation of The Metaverse – Are we ready,… again?
* The sticky parts of the “work from home” non-revolution
* The devaluation of human relationships and interaction – Is the watercooler doomed?
* Will bad body odor prevent back-to-office movement in dense urban areas?
* AI + Digital Twin = The virtual replacement of humanity?
* Personalized digital avatar/twin – Who will get there first? Siri?
* The Matrix fair trade – our body heat for virtual ignorance and bliss
* What does the Year of The Dragon mean for tech?
* Why Star Trek is all you need to know about our tech future – just don’t bank your business on it
* Things we forgot in 2023 – Massive Tech Layoffs, Silicon Valley Bank, and Crypto Scams & Criminality
* The inhumane root of the hockey stick of layoffs
* Will immersive reality make XR a thing in 2024 and make Digital Twin something Dimitri should get back into?
* X-washing is depressing Rob. We think he has a great point. Will tech save or make things less better?
* You could have bought two Hyundai Excels for one Mac Lisa in 1987 – The price of disruption

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