The excitement back then was just as intense, quaintly captured in an episode of \u201cMad Men,\u201d the AMC series set in the advertising business of the 1960s.<\/p>\n<p>The agency is about to get its first mainframe computer, a monolith that will take up a considerable chunk of the firm\u2019s floor space in a New York skyscraper. It\u2019s a breakthrough in the ability to crunch what were then large amounts of data. The partners, wearing hard hats, are celebrating: \u201cLet every customer coming through our door know that this agency has entered the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s taken all of sixty years and untold billions of connected smart devices for that technology to realize its potential as an essential consumer research and marketing tool (although not yet sophisticated enough to realize that if you just bought socks online, you probably don\u2019t need to see a parade of ads for socks). From here, the pace of development is poised to explode, and consumer-facing companies that get it right today will be the future leading brands.<\/p>\n<p>One of the early examples of practical applications is a project by SPD-Group, a customer relationship management technology developer for the retail sector. As described on its website, the project was for a supermarket, using video cameras throughout the store and software that can track individual customers as they move through the aisles. The system was designed to alert staff when a customer lingered longer than usual in one spot so an associate could find and assist them.<\/p>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"inread\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-inread\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, fashion brands like Brooks Brothers and retailers like Bloomingdale&#8217;s report sales increases in locations where they have installed Me-Ality virtual fitting kiosks. Step inside, and in 20 seconds, a scanner will measure 200,000 points of your body to help you make a perfect size selection.<\/p>\n<p>The possibilities are limited only by the imagination. One day a customer may be able to go to Nordstrom, open the app on a phone that shows a map of the store and a suggested route to take you down the aisles where you usually choose merchandise. The map would have precise product locations and personalized pricing based on your specific data and store inventory data, etc. And a chatbot for asking questions about the product or even tying into a personal shopper app, and an actual human appears to assist.<\/p>\n<p>At some point, these technologies will be available to all retailers, suggesting that the benefits to any one company will diminish over time. Not so, according to former Facebook executive Chamath Palihapitiya. In an interview this past winter, he used as a metaphor an example cited by Omaha investor Warren Buffett during his decades as a guru of capitalism. It is the story of the development of refrigeration. Buffett noted that the people who invented it made money, but the big money was made by brands like Coca-Cola<fbs-ticker data-name=\"KO\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/companies\/coca-cola\" data-type=\"stock\"><br \/>\n  KO<br \/>\n <\/fbs-ticker>, who used it to build an empire.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI view these large language models as refrigeration,\u201d Palihapitiya said. \u201cThere may be some money made in it, but the Coca-Cola has yet to be built.\u201d So, what will separate the winners from the losers?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you take 1,000 of the same inputs and give it to Facebook and Microsoft<fbs-ticker data-name=\"MSFT\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/companies\/microsoft\" data-type=\"stock\"><br \/>\n  MSFT<br \/>\n <\/fbs-ticker> and Google<fbs-ticker data-name=\"GOOG\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/companies\/google\" data-type=\"stock\"><br \/>\n  GOOG<br \/>\n <\/fbs-ticker> and Amazon<fbs-ticker data-name=\"AMZN\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/companies\/amazon\" data-type=\"stock\"><br \/>\n  AMZN<br \/>\n <\/fbs-ticker>, they&#8217;ll all come up with the same machine learning model. But if you have one extra thing, one little ingredient that other companies don&#8217;t have, your output can be markedly different.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That \u201clittle ingredient?\u201d Real-time CUSTOMER INPUT.
