Can conversational AI make human conversations better? Will humans and AI complement or compete with each other? How important is chatbot transparency? In this episode of IBM thinkLeaders podcast, we are joined by Clément Delangue (co-founder and CEO of Hugging Face) and Drew Austin (co-founder & CEO of Wade & Wendy). We talk to Clément and Drew the importance of building trust with conversational AI, building company values inside the conversational AI being developed, and how people prefer natural language as the first-choice interface. We also get into whether a chatbot should replace your therapist, the flaws in regular conversation, and why your chatbot might be more like your pet than your friend. “It's super important to be able to trust. The trust from people in this new form of technology...So being transparent is the first step of building this trust.” -Clément Delangue, co-founder and CEO of Hugging Face “We're about to have a conversation about something very deeply intimate and personal, your career, your life, your interests, your goals to start that on the wrong foot and pretend that you're a human is just not the right way to build the foundations of trust and I think trust is essential to how we have interaction and conversation. I mean if you think about some of the necessities and conversation it, trust is at that foundational core.” -Drew Austin, co-founder & CEO of Wade & Wendy Connect with thinkLeaders and our panelists: @IBMthinkLeaders @ClementDelangue @DrewAustin BIOS Clément Delangue is the co-founder and CEO of Hugging Face.

Augmate allows enterprise corporations to manage all of their company's IOT devices, including glasses and other wearables, from a single blockchain-based platform. Blockchain and distributed ledger technology allow IOT devices to not only be secured with the latest protections, but also allow devices to work with each other, and to create standards for interoperability. In order to accurately be able to charge their consumers, Augmate functions on a fractional license access token called MATE, which has cryptographic coupon attributes. This means that the token is able to be used internally as part of their point system for charging companies for the use of the devices, but also functions as a utility token to give individual users access to the platform. Augmate hopes to be able to expand to the consumer marketplace shortly, as it is estimated that the 4th Industrial Revolution will create 50 billion IOT devices by 2020.

There's a lot of talk about Augmented Reality, and when it might become "mainstream." Many leading experts believe that workers who are in front of "screens" all day (office and desk workers) might not be the first to be immerser in augmeted reality - it might just be the mechanic and the warehouse worker wearing headsets and seeing holographic displays in front of them. Augmate CEO Pete Wassell explains talks about his predictions. For More Information, Visit the HUB of Startups / Business in Emerging Technology.
