Summary | The future is artificially intelligent. All major digital companies seem to see the most potential in messenger-based, artificially intelligent chatbots. Studies have shown that people value messaging services most highly on their smartphones so any innovation needs to be accessible through a messaging service. WhatsApp is a very significant one, it has 900 mio users.

Summary | Facebook and other corporations are trying to improve artificial intelligence's image in society. Many people are afraid of it, that it will take away their jobs, or do not trust it with high-stakes tasks such as flying planes, overseeing children, or medical diagnoses. It is likely that all of these things will happen and a consortium of corporations of the digital world are trying to lift the stigma off of these facts. After all, we are already trusting artificial intelligence to remind us to take medication, to guide us through traffic while avoiding traffic jams, and so on.

Summary | Mark Zuckerberg is experimenting with his household appliances trying to connect them all to the internet so that he can eventually operate any and all devices in his home by voice command. He thinks that artificial intelligence will become more and more important in our daily lives and is hard at work in creating his own personal digital butler that follows all his verbal orders and even anticipates his needs. The technology is however not ready yet: not all household appliances can be connected to the internet and those that can often use different programming languages.
