I expect online shopping and concepts like Amazon Go will accelerate so that people don't have to go to large stores to shop. Restaurants likely will have to change as well, and there should be a huge push for robotic food preparation. People are going to get nervous about the thought of someone who might be sick preparing their food. (Granted, this hasn't seemed to faze people who mistreat wait staff, despite the common belief that mistreated wait staff spit in food, which I knew to happen when I was in food).

The issue here is that AIs can make decisions that affect the lives and security of millions of users. Without the necessary staff or expertise to analyze the implications of these decisions, IoT companies can -- albeit accidentally -- compromise their IoT networks. Of all th...

Few would argue against education and training -- yet many companies are not making serious investments for their staffs or their end users. There's still a tendency to acknowledge the problem in a general way but to lag on taking specific defensive measures, which can be a strain on resources.

Your work isn't done once the customer enters your shop. In many ways, it's just begun. Think about it: How offputting (and just plain weird) would it be if you walked into a brick-and-mortar store and were ignored completely by the staff, the fitting room attendant, and the cashier?...
