This concept merges the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Internet_of_things\"><span class=\"s2\">Internet of Things<\/span><\/a> with what they call <i>Liquid Consumer Expectations<\/i>. The basic idea is quite simple: when customers (humans) have a positive experience in one industry, they carry the expectations from that experience into other industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">For example, if a customer has a positive experience getting out of a taxi without having to go through a payment process (because it&#8217;s all happened in the cloud), this experience becomes &#8220;liquid&#8221; in the way it influences and shapes that customer&#8217;s expectations of the same process at their bank or at the supermarket.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">This means that businesses and living services are required to adapt in a way that considers everything everyone does, 24 hours a day. Every person (and everything they do) is vastly different. The goal of Living Services, then, is to make a real impact on people&#8217;s lives by designing services that are highly personal. They would morph and wrap themselves around the customer in real time based on their individual needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">It&#8217;s pretty difficult\u2014dare we say impossible\u2014to make the Internet of Things effective without taking people&#8217;s needs into consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through screens and interfaces, the distinction between human and machine is blurring.
