We’re about to evolve beyond the information age to enter the age of insight. In 2040, value will come from readily surfacing connections, insights, and answers buried deep in a universe of data—natural and human-generated—as limitless, emergent, and difficult to penetrate as the physical universe.  (PG 114)

In the coming era, technology will al- low us to see more clearly using data and to think completely differently about age-old problems both large and small. (PG 114)

**Importance of DATA (Internet Data)

The new era of computing, just emerging, will be one of cognitive sys- tems. Instead of being programmed by humans, computers will “learn” from their interactions with data and people, and they will adapt, like the brain, to many parallel connections among data streams at once, gen- erating patterns, observations, and insights. (PG 117)

IBM’s Watson represents a starting point for a cognitive system.3 It shows what this kind of technology can do today, which helps us im- agine what it will do tomorrow.  (PG 117)

If you want to go after a particular skill set or change careers, the digital assistant will help sustain focus on your objec- tives, the core requirements, and alternative pathways to proceed. It will act as a guide—an adviser and advocate for skills and learning  (PG 123)
