I was at Dell Technologies World 2022 last week. Often, I’m not very excited about anything on the showcase floor at events like this, but DTW has been the exception. So, I’m going to tell you what you missed.
With last week’s announcement that the Varjo Reality Cloud had exited beta and is now in full release, we basically have two metaverse camps: Meta’s, which is focused on the consumer and revenue; and the Varjo-Nvidia approach where performance is king and business is the primary focus.
Lack of commonality with home automation offerings remains rampant. Apple, Google, and Amazon have worked at connecting with these different platforms, but the results are less than reliable. Until connected home automation devices will talk to each other, or we have a more dependable way to bridge ...
Let’s talk about why Elon Musk likely got the offer of a board seat from Twitter, why he probably turned it down, and what will happen to his “hostile takeover” attempt.
At one time, the U.S. dominated industries like oil and gas, consumer electronics, automobiles, and trains. Except for Apple clawing back some of one of those markets, control and leadership now belongs to others.
Up until last week, for discrete graphics you had a choice of two vendors: AMD which was the leader in value, and Nvidia which tended to lead in absolute performance. While those two firms often trade places, the battlefield was well defined. Now, Intel is bringing high-performance graphics hardware...
Nvidia's GTC conference last week was amazing. What Nvidia does that no other vendor seems to get is use their technology to craft the keynote. Instead of watching a boring talking head, you get to see the benefits of their latest technology used and demonstrated virtually.
Eventually the war in Ukraine will come to an end. The metaverse, AI and large-scale 3D printing could help rebuild and transform a post-war Ukraine into one of the new wonders of the world by using technology being developed to create the first lunar base. Let's talk about how that might happen. We...
Suddenly, a lot of companies are rethinking aggressively global resourcing and divesting manufacturing as bad ideas. The result is some interesting dynamics which should lead to higher prices than before but lower than we have now, coupled with a far stronger supply chain. Let's talk about some of t...
We are in the beginning phases of unanticipated change which will impact and reshape not only the tech industry, but the world. Let's talk about these changes. Then we will close with the product of the week, a new monitor from HP designed for our video conferencing remote-work normal.
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is at risk for doing the right things while CEOs who are behaving badly enjoy incredible financial rewards. It seems like we are rewarding the wrong behavior. Let's talk about that this week, and we'll close with an offering announced last week which focuses on wireless charg...
Jaguar is a company that believes in cars you drive, not cars that drive you. Thus, last week's announcement that Jaguar and Land Rover would adopt Nvidia's full stack of technology for automated driving is fascinating because Jaguar and Land Rover will be using the tech to make driving safer while ...
Last week I was on a panel for the World Talent Economy Forum talking about the commoditization of space travel, after which I concluded that putting people in space has made little sense for some time. Let's talk about space travel this week -- and we'll close with the product of the week: a new se...
Facebook is suddenly starting to look a lot like Netscape did many years ago, and that isn't a good thing. The cause appears to be the same: inexperienced leadership. Meanwhile, AMD is doing exceedingly well because it aggressively pursued experienced leaders. Let's compare AMD and Facebook this wee...
Intel's US$20 billion plan to build in Ohio the largest semiconductor factory in the U.S. will be crucial to the United States' ability to both enforce technology sanctions against Russia if war breaks out, and to assure success if the war spreads and extends over a long period of time. Let's explor...
The automotive market is moving rapidly to make and sell autonomous vehicles, but studies suggest that two out of three drivers don't want them. Let's talk about what the industry is doing wrong with its positioning of autonomous electric cars. Then we'll close with the product of the week, an impre...
It was an amazing CES this year. Although it was unsafe for me to travel to the show, much of the event is streamed and I saw a number of sensational products. Let's cover those this week -- and we'll close with my product of the week, which appropriately enough is my favorite product from CES 2022.
CES is the biggest consumer electronics show in the U.S., and it has historically been a wonderful place to see what is coming up for the new year. So, let's talk about what I expect to appear at CES. Then we'll close with my first product of the week for 2022: Dell's Concept Luna, the first truly s...
The Metaverse and tools like Nvidia's Omniverse will not only have a massive impact on lower-cost and far better movie graphics, but also our ability to translate what is in our imaginations to real-world events and lay a stronger foundation for everything; from more-realistic games to digital immor...
Typically, at the end of the year, I try to pick a product that impressed me the most or one I found that I could not live without. This year, however, I am going to pick the product that either most mitigated the problems we have or the one that entered the market and drove a technology wave. Let's...
