Infonomics with Doug Laney

Probably one of the richest conversations I have had from a business perspective on Data Science, Infonomics, AI and Psychology of Patterns. Here are some of the key takeaways: 1. The Wall Street Journal quoted Doug Laney saying ‘ Its flummoxing that companies have better accounting for their office furniture than their information assets’. 2. United and American Airline’s third party valuation based on collateral customer loyalty data is 3-4 times more than their actual market cap. 3. ‘Kushim’ from Yuval Noah Harari’s book 'Sapiens', the first known human being was an accountant, which tells a lot about the importance of information. 4. Future disruptive technologies according to Gartner are DNA storage, Quantum Computing and Carbon Nanotubes. 5. Doug’s been a competitive tennis player and is now exploring pickle ball.
