As a result of advances in sophisticated artificial intelligence, machine learning, automation, and augmented reality, the Internet landscape is undergoing massive change. From toasters to transit systems, we are now in the age of the Internet of Things, where interconnected devices and objects are fully networked and communicate data back and forth. Devices and objects learn from these data exchanges and adapt and respond to our personal needs and preferences. Soon, everything will be “smart.” If you are a mainstream user of technology, part of the sandwich generation, or a baby boomer trying to navigate the IoT age, this book is your roadmap.
