Your ERP
Needs To Speak with the Internet Of Things
… The
Internet
of Things,
with its higher degree of integration between internal systems and
the wider world of data and the cloud, is a phenomenon here to stay
for major companies. Companies without an IoT strategy will quickly
fall behind.
Some Best Practices…
CCPA: What
Does It Mean For AI (Artificial Intelligence)?
… As with any new law, there will be tests in
the courts. But it does seem clear that the CCPA will mean that
plenty of companies will have to rethink their approaches with AI.
“Many AI applications gather or process
consumers' personal information for various purposes,” said Harley
Geiger, who is the Director of Public Policy at Rapid7. “Those
activities would be subject to the CCPA's requirements. So, for
example, a company may need to disclose to consumers that it uses
browsing history to aid algorithmic decisions, and a company may need
to allow consumers to delete personal information from automated
services that learn from that personal information.”
At a minimum, companies should tighten up their
compliance policies, which may also mean purchasing new tools for
monitoring.
… Then what are some best practices to
consider? Here’s a look:
Library ebook services as an investment?
KKR
investment firm to buy OverDrive, biggest library ebook company
TeleRead
– David Rothman –
“Toxic
for libraries? The KKR
investment firm is
buying
none
other than OverDrive
—the
biggest library ebook company, providing ebooks and audiobooks to
43,000+
libraries and schools in 75 countries.
The seller is Rakuten,
also owner of the Kobo
ereader,
audiobook and ebook business. “The two sides did not provide a
price tag for the Ohio-based property, which Rakuten purchased for
$410 million in 2015,” MarketWatch reports,
“but Rakuten said it would recognize about $365.6 million in profit
from the sale in the first quarter of 2020.”
Perspective. Should 6% be treated as a monopoly?
Why I’m confused by the talk of antitrust.
What's
Amazon's market share? 35% or 5%?
- Amazon is a big company, but what does that mean? How big is ‘big’? What does ‘dominant’ or ‘scale’ or ‘huge’ mean when US retail is $6 trillion a year?
- Regulators pick and choose market definitions depending on their objective, and this will probably happen to Amazon - it’s definitely dominant in books and definitely not in cars. But if we’re going to worry about the scale of the Amazon machine, which scale are we talking about? That’s a political question as much as it’s an economic one.
