90. What That Means with Camille: Ambient (Ubiquitous) Compute

<p>In this episode of Cyber Security Inside What That Means, Camille takes a deep dive into ambient compute (also known as ubiquitous compute) with Mohammed R. Haghighat, Fellow at Intel.</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The conversation covers:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  How we are moving into an era of ambient computing, and technologies are emerging to transition us into that era.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  What ambient computing might look like in everyday life, such as in a mall, at a traffic light, or an evening at home.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  How privacy plays a role in ambient computing, and what needs to happen to make sure people are protected.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  What the long term goals are of ambient computing and how it will adjust our daily lives.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">...and more. Don’t miss it!</span></p> <p> </p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">The views and opinions expressed are those of the guests and author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Intel Corporation.</span></em></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Here are some key takeaways:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">- There are three main eras of computing: the first is the mainframe era. That was where you interacted with a computer using punch cards or an unintelligent terminal.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  The next era was the PC, or personal computing era. In that era came smartphones, the cloud, and your own personal computers.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  We are now in the early stages of the ambient era, where computing interacts with the ambient. Instead of interacting with a PC or your phone, you are interacting with the ambient.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-  Transitions between these eras are helped along by technologies rooted in the current era with elements of what is to come. For example, the internet
