- Has Software Eaten the World? A Discussion on the Evolution and Future Direction of SoftwareMarc Andreessen wrote his now famous essay in the Wall Street Journal “Why Software Is Eating The World.” The point of the piece was to highlight the role that software would play in the transformation of every industry. The article was provocative in 2011 and quite frankly still holds up well today.We discuss the two major software paradigms1. The Software Evolution Stack - meaning how software has evolvedPackaged software - late 80's to 90'sSoftware as a Service - Late 90'sComponent software- Mid 2000'sSelf organizing/self writing software - 2022 on2. Software with tentacles - meaning how we interact with software. In the old world we interacted with software via keyboards and printers. In the new world we add IoT devices.Emerging technologies we discuss include IoT, low code, no code, AI, artificial intelligence, scan and go, virtual reality, augmented reality, POS, social selling and social commerceGive it a listen and let us know what you think?Podcast HostsJeff RosterTwitter https://twitter.com/JeffPRLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-roster-bb51b8/Website https://thisweekininnovation.comBrian SathianathanTwitter https://twitter.com/BrianVisionWebsite https://www.iterate.aiPodcast Websitehttps://www.podbean.com/pu/pbblog-f8asf-af2782https://thisweekininnovation.comApplehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-week-in-innovation/id1562068014Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2QDqTUnt6jebdRHbRzSTJNLaunchPadOnehttps://www.launchpaddm.com/pd/This-Week-in-Innovation?showAllEpisodes=trueListen Noteshttps://lnns.co/2QPSfnizE5K38 min
