The Essential Phone and IBM Watson

The Essential Phone

On this week’s Internet of Things Podcast, Kevin and Stacey discuss the Essential Phone from Andy Rubin’s new company that features teases a new connected home assistant. Kevin and I discuss what we know, and Kevin also explains a surprise decision he’s made regarding Google (here’s the link he mentions during the show). We also discuss Apple’s potential AI chips, ARM’s new designs and a way to add capacitive touch to wood! Finally, I share my WeMo dimmer switch thoughts.

Bret Greenstein, VP of Watson IoT for Consumer Business at IBM, is our guest. He shares a bit about Watson and IoT, but his biggest service might be his help breaking down how analytics, machine learning and AI all relate.
