  • Young people today are going to come into the workplace used to pervasive. mobile communications and they're not going to be impressed with the static, lock-down worsktations we have now.
    
    "They're pre-trained not to think as stupidly as previous generations," said JP.
  • "If we make everything we say a data object, and we can share and move it around," he says. "It becomes valuable."
