What if we already have the technology to solve some of the world’s hardest problems—and we’re simply failing to use it? In this episode of FOBTV, I sit down with longtime technology pioneer, IDC Research Director, and author Rob Tiffany to discuss his bold new book, Saving the Earth with the Internet of Things. Rob has assembled 100 practical ways IoT can help address many of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals including: food loss, water scarcity, wildfires, deforestation, endangered species, education, and other global challenges.
We also explore the massive AI data center boom, rising pressure on energy and water, unexpected winners in the AI economy, and the second- and third-order consequences of today’s unprecedented infrastructure spending.
This is not a conversation about shiny technology. It is about action. The tools are increasingly available. The problems are visible. The question is: Who is actually going to do something?
*I use AI in all my work.
